if me

if me is a community for mental health experiences that encourages people to share their personal stories with trusted allies. Trusted allies are the people we interact with on a daily basis, including friends, family members, co-workers, teachers, and mental health workers.

Dealing with mental health is what makes us human. But for a lot of us, it's a struggle to be open about it. Not everyone is a counsellor or therapist. The people who we interact with everyday shape our emotions and behavior. Getting them involved in mental health treatment is the key to recovery.

The live site can be found at if-me.org.

We use the wonderful Contributor Covenant for our code of conduct. Please read it before joining our project.

Donate

We also welcome financial contributions in full transparency on our Open Collective. Anyone can file an expense. If the expense makes sense for the development of the community, it will be "merged" in the ledger of our Open Collective by the core contributors and the person who filed the expense will be reimbursed.

We also have a Patreon page where you can give monthly donations.
