					<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s bittersweet to see more and more mainstream news outlets cover mental health issues (a step in the right direction) but while using language that perpetuates stereotypes and stigma. A recent NST headlines screamed : &#8220;[Exclusive] Overworked souls risk going mental and dying early&#8221;.

I attempted suicide countless times to the point that I was actually rushed to the ER. I overdosed three times on my antidepressants, drank chemical and I&#8217;ve been cutting myself.
