Mrs Bipolarity recently wrote a post called Stigma Sucks Sunday: A Recap. Basically it’s about negative stigma spoken by people in the public eye. It got me thinking of ways we can make a change. So I’ve done a brief vlog inspired by one Mrs Bipolarity’s comments from her post above.
If you feel able, please follow suit & do your own brief vlog supporting the real faces of mental illness.
YES! You totally stole my plan! HA!!! This is EXACTLY WHAT I HAD IN MIND! You go, guy! Love it! (and the little eyebrow raise at the end!)
Sorry for the steal Great minds DO think alike 🙂
Indeed they do! I posted your blog on the Mrs Bipolarity Facebook Page, annnnnnd I tweeted it. I’m ALL about this!
Thank you!
I loved this
Thanks
Your voice sounds normal compared to the last recording you posted. The eye brow raise was cute and quirky. Well done, my friend!
Ha, what did I sound like in the last one?
My eyebrows have minds of their own 🙂
Thanks
Not as crisp. I think you said you had a Liverpool accent the last time.
Yeah Liverpool born & bred 🙂
So can I call you Brit Bipolar Beatle now?
My sis & bro-in-law used to say I sounded like Ringo Starr, so yeah why not!
The eyebrow raise at the end was hilarious!
It would appear my eyebrows are getting all the attention here lol
What a great idea. I’ll do mine asap. Is there one sight that we will be posting or have you not gotten that for yet.
Sound, I look forward to it.
Looking into it now. Will keep you posted
Bravo!!!!!!! How about we start a Youtube channel for Faces of Mental Illness? LET’S GO VIRAL, MY FRIENDS!!!!
That would be great! Do you know how to set one up?
Yes, it’s easy to do. I’ll try to get one done within the next few days. I’ve just arrived in Israel and rather Internet access challenged but this too shall pass. I have a personal YouTube channel but we should have a dedicated one. I’ll get on it!
what is your email Laura P Schulman? 🙂 We tried emailing you earlier… PS I was just setting some things up on YouTube, but I’m not super familiar with YouTube so could use some assistance… ha.

Yep, I’ll put mine on the channel tonight.
