Michelle: The man I fell in love with and the man I've known is awesome - and through his unwellness he was still awesome but really hard work because it was heart breaking to see him so low...but worth it to know that he would be well again.

I think one key thing that, I suppose, has strengthened our relationship is that I have so much admiration for Aubrey.

To see him rock bottom where he was a few years ago and to see where he is now.

Don't forget - what you had, and that you can have it again, through commitment, for shear force of love for that person.
Don't lose hope it will come back again.

Voice Over
For people with mental illness, the biggest barrier to recovery is discrimination.
What you do makes the difference.
