Over the past few years, I have been interacting, observing and reading thousands of tweets from Doctors, Lawyers, Celebrities, Nurses, Advocates, Judges and more on the issue of mental illness on Twitterverse. Hence, I was compelled to put together a list of some of the people from around the world that are continuously engaging in the conversation about mental health and to say Kudos to you. I am also compiling a list of advocates which I’ll publish soon. Thank you all for your support and the work you are all doing. Karen.
Quote: Imagine if we treated breast cancer the way we treat mental health. Mental health is a part of health and the early we invest the bigger the return. ~ Dr. David Rettew (USA) Child Psychiatrist & Author: Child Temperament.
