Breaking Barriers: Chance's Journey from Obesity to Mental Wellness
“If we can normalize mental health as a disease and everything that comes with it, whether it be addiction or self-harm or suicide, yes, suicide isn't normal, but if we can normalize the discussion around it, yes, then we're doing something properly, as far as I'm concerned.”
