Campaign idea: Sue built a support network
After surviving a four-year mental health crisis, Sue built a dedicated support network so nobody with borderline personality disorder has to face it alone.
This story
After coming out of a four-year crisis, Sue found that general mental health groups were not focused enough on her diagnosis. She set up a specialised support group in 2017 so others would not have to go through what she experienced. The group moved online during the pandemic and expanded to hundreds of members, running crisis cards, specialised chat groups, and local meetups.
