The Upside Down Symbol

means that the carrier either lives with or has an open and accepting attitude towards mental illness and various diagnoses.

The person wearing the symbol does not have to have a diagnosis themselves, but it can be a way to express a stance or to show support for a loved one who is struggling.

For someone who keeps a diagnosis a secret, it can be a great sense of security to see a symbol in various contexts that means that you are allowed to be yourself and are welcome to tell us how you feel.

The hope is that this will lead to new discussions about mental health in new contexts, which is exactly what we need to counter stigma.
