Breaking the Stigma for B

Instagram

Meet our inspiration, Batsheva Chaya Stadlan z”l. Batsheva brough so much love and energy wherever she went. She was always there for her friends through the good and bad times. She loved to dance and could always make those around her smile with her infectious sense of humor.

Share your stories of mental health journeys, memories of B, or how her story inspired you with the link our bio

Batsheva was a loving friend, sister, and daughter who sparked so much energy and joy in those around her. Unfortunately, at the same time, Batsheva was also suffering from her own mental health struggles. Throughout her life, Batsheva suffered from anxiety, an eating disorder, and depression. After many years of suffering, Batsheva lost her battle with these mental illnesses, and she died by suicide in April 2017. Many people in Batsheva’s life did not know about her struggles, so she had to fight these battles without the support of many of her closest friends.

With this project, we hope to remove the stigma that surrounds mental illness. No one should have to feel like they cannot share their own struggles with those around them and find support in the love and care of their friends. By having members of our broader community share stories of their mental health struggles, we hope to bring awareness that no one is truly alone.

In honor of five years since Batsheva’s passing, we want to Break the Stigma for B.
