Abelism and Stigma in the Medical Field, with guest Christopher Birstler

Trigger Warning due to discussions of suicide.

This week Julie, and Chrissa are joined return guest Christopher Birstler,

Christopher has survived multiple suicide attempts while having to navigate through systems filled with abelism and stigma to seek the care and support he needs. He coined the hashtag #SuperAdvocate to describe how advocacy is at the core of his heart. As a survivor of trauma and abuse Christopher boldly proclaims that everyone should at least try therapy with an open mind even if they do not think they will benefit. The founder of a not for profit organization and a learning obsessed growth minded individual just scratches the surface of who Christopher is and who he is meant to be.
