Reviews
''It was nice to have my feelings said out loud by someone else, as I have never been able to say them... It's nice to know people will understand how I feel. Thank you.'' - Hannah Kathleen Browning
''This thought provoking piece, that includes recordings of people who have truly suffered is a must for anyone who has experienced mental health issues, and a learning tool for anyone who wants to understand more about the subject.'' - Andrew Hay, reporter at Community Matters Radio Station
