Why I watched Words on Bathroom Walls

I have struggled immensely with mental illness since I was a teenager. I have had many diagnoses thrown at me from bipolar disorder to eating disorders, autism and others. I have never found a movie which accurately depicted the experience of mental illness without placing massive stigma on the behaviour and that also accurately depicted the treatment process and identified the helpful treatments from the unhelpful. This movie exemplified that compassion and showing love to those suffering mental illness is so important and in fact is the cornerstone in someones recovery and management of symptoms.
