#theheartproject

Me & my page Mental Illness Support for the Open-Minded have partnered up with The Heart Project to help spread awareness of mental illness. Feel free to add your hearts & share the pics on the event page & your other social media! Invite your friends!

*****Raising Awareness for mental health and ALL mental illnesses/disorders.

On July 10th - 15th, join The Heart Project to spread and raise awareness for mental health and all mental illnesses/disorders. This is to show we are not ashamed, to let others know that they are not alone, and to fight stigma. And hopefully it will start a positive conversation about mental health.

During the project week, draw a heart or many hearts, using the official awareness colours of your illness(es), onto your wrist/arm/ankle/body-part. Each heart has a colour to represent your illness. You may use felt tips pens, washable markers, paint, nail varnish or photoshop them onto your photo. Take a picture of your hearts and upload them in the event, onto your profile and other social media, and/or on the pages that are holding the event (list of pages at the end of this description). Then hashtag it #TheHeartProject

If you don't have a mental health problem or mental illness but would like to show your support, please draw a red heart on your wrist/arm/ankle/body-part.

Please help us to spread the word by sharing our event posters. The more people involved, the greater the awareness.
