I decided to be a part of the Lift The Mask club because I and people close to me have been affected by mental health issues.

 

Throughout my whole life, I have been a very self-conscious person and when I came to college those anxieties became even greater. I currently see a therapist and have really turned around since I admitted that I needed a little bit of help. I have learned that everyone has their own uniqueness and that eventually you will be surrounded by people that truly want the best for you and make you happy.

 

I am so happy that I am no longer putting up a facade, and I can truly have a real smile on my face. I lifted the mask and could not be happier about it.
