[…] those of us who have and are experiencing this need to speak out and let the mental healthcare and general healthcare profession know that we are here and we need to be seen, just like you have with your physical conditions.

As someone who barely opens up to other people, this was a big deal. I look back now with fond memories of that weekend.

I am open to questions about the experience, but will not be discussing my bunkmates because I want to keep their privacy.
