OUR MISSION

OC87 Recovery Diaries is the go-to destination for long-form mental health recovery stories, professionally-produced documentary films, and a creative and supportive hub for writers who find value in telling their mental health stories.

Our readers are either individuals living with their own mental health challenges, or they are family members and close friends of someone with a mental health challenge. Others who frequent our site are mental health care providers (direct service — inpatient or outpatient), those involved in mental health administration and/or advocacy.
