Welcome readers and writers,
We're so grateful you're here. We created Invisible Illness to house all of Medium's best mental health stories. We're here to amplify voices and stories, spark open conversations, and offer support without judgment. Join us in sharing stories that will better the future for all who are affected by mental illness.
Please read our Welcome Letter to learn more about the publication and its editors.
As editors of this pub, we believe sharing stories about mental illness is important, and that it’s not just one story from one individual that makes a difference — though we do believe reading the right story at the right time can change a life.
Instead, it’s the layering effect of many stories, told with differing approaches and by people from all over the world, with their various perspectives, that can dent stigma and affect change.
