“Just because someone has a mental illness doesn’t make them any different from you and me. Nearly 1 in 5 Americans has a mental illness. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2011. The more you talk about mental health, the more awareness it raises and less taboo it is to talk about.” People Magazine

“Everyone has dealt with their share of random negative comments. It all comes down to how you handle it. For me, it’s about having constructive conversations instead of ignoring the issue. I found a lot of success in saying: Hey,  wondering why you feel that way? And this is how I feel.”  Seventeen Magazine
