Celebrity Mental Health Struggles: Supportiv Releases Largest Collection of Inspirational Celebrity Narratives to De-Stigmatize Mental Illness and Humanize All Struggle


BERKELEY, Calif., Sept. 26, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Supportiv, the support network that matches users with peers for anonymous, real-time chats on any mental wellness topic ?from everyday life struggles, anxiety, stress and relationship or work conflicts to grief and loneliness? announces the world's largest collection of celebrity mental health stories at http://www.supportiv.com/celebrity.

"We typically see only bits and pieces of celebrities' lives, the moments when they are the most polished, or the most charismatic. There is a public presumption of invincibility which overshadows reality. It is human to struggle, or to feel lonely or anxious. We applaud those who have revealed their raw moments," says Supportiv Co-Founder Helena Plater-Zyberk.

"By talking about their experiences, celebrities are de-stigmatizing not only serious mental health issues but also the vulnerabilities of everyday life. They are sending a hopeful message that if you are struggling, you are not alone! And if you express it, it might help you find your healing path," says Supportiv Co-Founder Pouria Mojabi.

Supportiv announced its public beta in June 2018 and has already helped over 53,000 users feel less stressed, lonely, angry, sad, anxious, and depressed. It is available on the App Store, on Google Play, and as a web chat at http://www.supportiv.com.
