Her story is refreshing in its honesty and transparency.   Key Takeaways - Living with mental illness should carry no greater stigma than living with a physical illness. - Don't be afraid to be open about mental illness. - Being open about mental illness allows you to take ownership over your condition and can help others open up about theirs.   Resources: Ann-Marie Kallberg   |   Instagram   Learn more about & contact Rod Cate:Rod Cate Website Twitter Facebook LinkedIn   More about Get Back Up: On August 14, 1981, Rod broke his neck while making a tackle that left him paralyzed from the neck down.
