WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT FACES OF MENTAL ILLNESS
Deborah Sandella PhD, RN
#1 International Bestselling author of Goodbye Hurt & Pain, 7 Simple Steps to Health, Love and Success, and Creator of RIM, a heavily-backed neuroscience tool proven to reduce stress and improve quality of life. As seen in CNN, CBS, NBC, FOX and USA Today.
“Fernandez-Niedzielski, Ruth and Butler with their new book Faces of Mental Illness have cracked open the stigma of mental illness to reveal real people with touching human stories; their lives demonstrate how resilience and courage can navigate a journey to health. It’s time we see human faces instead of diagnoses behind what we label Mental Health. Our community of humankind is diverse and each person's journey unique. Mental illness is part of that journey for some the same way diabetes if for others. This book will open your heart and dissolve artificial separations amongst us. I recommend it.”
Kathleen Seeley
Founder: Massively Human Leadership
“Faces of Mental Illness is a book that grabs your attention immediately as you are fully immersed in the lives of these 20 brave individuals who have experienced such a wide range of mental illness symptoms and circumstances that most of us could not even begin to imagine; and yet, they have all found a way to live productive and positive lives. The real, raw and authentic stories you will find in this book paint the perfect picture of what is possible despite Mental Illness and invite us to join the movement to stop the stigma on an illness that is widely spread and highly misunderstood. I have certainly gained so much more compassion and understanding for these individuals as I have come to know several of them personally and would have never imagined they were struggling with mental illness. I highly recommend this book.”
Patty Aubery
Co-Creator of the billion-dollar publishing brand, “Chicken soup for the soul”, President of The Canfield Training Group, Best Selling author of Permission Granted
"This is more than just a book. Faces of Mental Illness is a movement, created by two women with a mission to break the stigmas surrounding mental illness and who are being supported by a publisher who wholeheartedly believes in this message. What Fernandez-Niedzielski, Ruth and Butler have created will move you, will inspire you; and most importantly, it will give you hope. In this world full of judgments and stigmas, these 20 brave individuals will open your eyes to what it’s truly like to live with a mental illness and still thrive! A must read for anyone facing mental illness”
