A Little About
​Myself.

I am Jessica Ward-King, B.Sc., Ph.D., also known as the StigmaCrusher.
Heavily educated and heavily medicated, I have lived experience of bipolar disorder, and a doctorate in experimental psychology.

​Crazy, right?

Thank you Jessica for sharing your story - Stigma crushing starts with people like you who are brave enough to be a champion - you are an inspiration

How do you crush stigma?

Stigma is shame and fear.
Stigma is embarassment and silence.
Stigma is by far the worst plague I have ever experienced.

​I crush stigma by telling my story,
By busting out the science,
By finding humour in the darkness
By being vulnerable and strong
By being remarkable, not perfect
