Suicide Survivors

I want to give Mental Illness a black eye for a change.

Thriving means excelling beyond the norm, life doesn't have a glass ceiling, companies & organizations do, u can surpass them.

Armesha Lynn: Chicago, IL, United States; My entire life--all that I have been through--I believe is to send this message to people who deal with mental illness and feel that they are not worthy to live. You are worthy. You can do anything. That reasoning can also extend to others. I want to make it clear that as a person with mental illness, I am a person. You shouldn't put me in a corner. You shouldn't do any of those things that would make me feel isolated. I speak for mental illness by exposing the things I've been through, the onset of mental illness because of it, and letting everyone know you can thrive in it. So I wanna remove that veil. I'm thriving. Mental illness does not control me. I'm not hurting anyone, not harming anyone. Life is good. God is good and very much a part of my life. I'm living my dream with the challenges that I carry in my purse. I'm thriving. I invite you to take what's in my purse and thrive with it. Thrive with me. Just thrive.
