Tell us your story

Nothing brings an issue to life more than real-life stories.

In order to make mental health topics more accessible, Mind features real stories from people who have experience of mental distress. People who share their stories can help our work in many ways, such as promoting understanding of mental health issues and speaking to journalists on our behalf.

Mind also regularly works with people who have volunteered to discuss their experiences with journalists. Find out more about helping Mind by sharing your story with the media.

Have you been personally affected by something you've read about on our website? Would you like to share your story to give people a better understanding of mental health issues? If so, please email us.

Your story can be published anonymously but we will need your email address in case we need to contact you about your story.
