 Illnesses > Mental Health
Mental health issues, even in today,are still treated by doctors, insurance companies and society in general as being less important (and less treatable) than physical health. We tend to give up on the mentally ill (which term, by the way, does NOT necessarily mean "crazy". depression, for example, is also a mental illness). Find in this ring sites offering information and support for those of us who are struggling with self-injury, depression, borderline personality disorder, anorexia, bipolar disorder and other mental illnesses, as well as for those who want to maintain their mental health, and those who are involved with those whose mental health is in peril. This ring's illustration is a self-portrait by Peruvian photographer Amparo Torres and its use here does not imply anything whatsoever about the artist's mental health (the ring manager just thinks it's a cool picture which somehow evokes the precariousness of human mental health).
