Mental Health Awareness Part 1

May is Mental Health Awareness month.  I feel so strongly that this is an area where we lack patience, understanding, and education. Too many times this area of our health is overlooked and even forgotten about. If this season teaches us nothing I pray it shows up how behind we are in dealing with mental health issues.  Changes need to happen asap from our health care systems to out daily image of mental health.

  I shot this series to bring awareness and to help start a conversation. I asked my eldest daughter, Marissa, to join me.  I not only wanted another generation's perception, but someone that has been through her own battle.  She has been to her own hell and back. As her mother her struggle became my own.  We will share our story in hopes it helps even one person.
