Things I’m Reading: Mental Health Edition

Here’s a quick run-down of some of the things I have been reading lately:

• Buzzfeed.com: What is the real toll of war on our veterans? A beautiful photo series highlighting what it’s like to live with PTSD. For another take on living with and living through a traumatic experience, see my recent post about the broken and yet unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
