Hey folks One of the major stigmas surrounding mental health disorders in current society is that we are not capable of having jobs or working because we are 'crazy'. This is of course untrue so I was thinking we could do a video about employment. We could each be outside our places of work (in your uniform if you wear one), or have some footage of us doing our jobs, and have text appear on the screen next to use with our name, age, what we suffer from and what our job title is. Have some music playing over it. get someone to do an introduction as well. Alternatively we could each say a little bit about us (name, age, conditions/disorders) and what our job is and entails. What do you think?

I think that's a brilliant idea, loving your uniform by the way. What's your job?

You are pretty much sorted then mate! Good luck oh I had the most annoying experience with someone from Orlando the other week.....picked up by ambulance got to A&E and we spent a good 45 mins explaining that you don't have to pay and the nhs is a free service. They just didn't get it and were trying to write cheques for the ambulance service and for A&E even after we'd explained for the billionth time that we wouldn't accept it no matter what they did! Xx

Lol. That's easy to explain. Americans are robed of their hard earned dollars in every way possible. Nowadays most people won't go to the hospital unless they're dying cuz without insurance it's expensive, and, don't quote me on this mind, rumors are the prez is making buying insurance the law; and I'm part of the class of people who simply can't afford it. Yet another incentive to move I guess ^^;;
