We are all misunderstood, and the Misunderstood podcast is our voice. Mental health continues to be a subject that very few people want to talk about. Many who struggle with it feel embarrassed or guilty about their pain, and those who don't are left without an understanding of the depth these issues can reach. We all need to be on the same page to disperse the fear that surrounds mental health and to help reconstruct the misconceptions that plague it. By using stories that shed a personal light on these subjects that so often go unshared, we're putting a voice to problems that become bigger the less we talk about them. People suffer because their experiences go unheard. Our intent is to move closer—to pay attention, ask good questions, and walk in another's shoes to get a better understanding of how mental health affects all of us. All we have to do—and our audience, too—is listen.
