You Are Not Alone: The NAMI Guide to Navigating Mental Health―With Advice from Experts and Wisdom From Real People and FamiliesAs part of her release from a psychiatric hospital after years of incarceration and hospitalization, Kimberly Comer was required to attend a presentation in which a leader with a lived experience speaks openly about what it’s like to have a mental health condition. It was that group that saved her life.
The presentation Comer attended was part of the National Association for Mental Illness’ In Our Voice series. As the chief medical officer of NAMI, I’m admittedly a little biased here, but it’s a program that has made a difference for many. It’s just one example of how peer support may be a vital bridge for those seeking care. Peers are often overlooked, despite the expertise they’ve acquired from their own mental health and addiction journeys.
