Your Words Have Meaning. Your Story Matters!

OC87 Recovery Diaries is an interactive website that features stories of mental health, empowerment and change, created by and for those whose journeys of recovery speak to audiences from all walks of life. This project hopes to touch as many lives as possible and bring light to the lived experiences of recovery from mental illness: what matters, what helps, what’s hard, what might be next?

OC87 Recovery Diaries exists to tell stories about how people with mental health challenges have created paths to meaningful lives. We feature stories that inspire and empower, stories that generate discussion and awareness. OC87 Recovery Diaries presents a range of experiences—personal perspectives, recovery innovations, examples of empowerment, strengths and gaps in the mental health system, and efforts to dismantle stigma—all told by people moving through their own recovery journeys.

We believe that sharing stories is the best way to #buststigma surrounding mental health. And not just any stories, your story.

The Mental Health Prompts Worksheet is designed to get you thinking about your mental health journey: where you’ve been, where you are now, and where you would like to be. To receive your free copy of the Mental Health Prompts, simply enter your email below. We encourage you to share your completed worksheet and begin the conversation about mental health with your family, friends, and loved ones.

Together, we can #buststigma.
