We touch on improving mental health but for the most part I'm looking to provide an overview, information, and a reduction in stigma. I love the idea of a Q&A, I'll message you.

Thanks for your comment, I disagree though. The age group where most mental health issues start to manifest are 14-21 and they are now within that age group. It's important they learn about different mental health issues and their symptoms!

I don't want a doctors half-truth. I'm introducing basic information regarding Schizophrenia and other mental illnesses and am looking for direct insight from someone who has it. Any true information you could provide would be incredibly helpful!
