  4. “Some wounds are easily seen- a cast on an arm, a bandaged leg or stitches after surgery. Others, not so easily: depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder. These are life’s invisible wounds. And while mental illness may not cut, bruise, or break, it’s still a wound that runs deep and needs care”.
