Friendship: Hope for Mental Illness

Recovery from mental health problems happens in a society of acceptance. Friends can make all the difference by just being there and offering support, friendship, strength and acceptance.

Through our contest, we've asked people to share their meaningful stories about friends helping another through recovery from mental health problems or during a particularly hard time in their lives.

This one of the runner up videos for the contest. It was submitted by Diane from Georgia and it shows how two friends help each other live for today and hope for tomorrow.


Check out our main site to learn about different mental health problems, read real-life stories about support and recovery, join an online community to share experiences, and see how you and your friends can make a difference :
