voices meet minds
Collective journal
The Collective Journal serves as a shared space where individuals can reflect on their mental health experiences, offering insights, advice, and personal journeys. It’s a platform that invites everyone — regardless of age, background, or profession — to write about their experiences with mental health. Our goal is to provide a welcoming, non-judgmental space where you can express your thoughts, connect with others, and find comfort in knowing that you are not alone in your challenges or triumphs.

These stories are from teenagers and young adults, ranging across multiple genres including but not restricted to personal essays, fiction, creative nonfiction, and poetry.
We ask that you treat each story with respect and kindness as it takes strength and courage for people to share them. We hope you approach this page with an open-mind, for everyone goes through different struggles and experiences them in their own ways. We are in no way suggesting how your should interpret or react to any story. We are simply a safe space for people to share.
