Mental Radio

Mental Radio features practical patient-powered content about healing and managing mental illness. We focus on stories of recovery and concentrate on all of the ways there are to get better. While most mental health organizations focus on meds and talk therapy we believe patients deserve to have access to information about ALL of the ways there are to recover. We believe the best way to smash stigma is to tell stories of patient self-empowerment, and healing.

There are so many different systems that are unfortunately disconnected that it can be hard to run down everything that's available in one place but here is my best shot!
