My hope for the future is that stigma around mental health will be eradicated – Take 5 To Blog
My name is Ellie and I have experienced an eating disorder, depression and borderline personality disorder. My mental illness has affected my whole life, I am unable to work at the moment and have been denied a place at university because of it. My greatest source of support has been my family, friends and being able to volunteer in mental health settings. My hope for the future is that stigma around mental health will be eradicated and access to support will be much easier. I am taking 5 on Time to Talk Day because I think that Time to Change is a fantastic campaign and I want to spread its word far and wide. This blog is part of the Time to Talk Day 2015 #Take5ToBlog initiative. What
