Making Sense of the Unseen Pain by Sharifah Nadirah

People with mental health issues are often stigmatised by society and their friends and family, to the extent that they feel grateful when they come across a stranger who understands their invisible pain.

Journeying through the author’s personal experience in living with mental illness, it inspires her to write, advocate, and raise awareness in the community. Through this book, the author shares a snippet of the sharp and painful truth about what it feels like living with mental illness while dealing with biased community around us.

There is more to mental health than just self-love and self-care. It has been truly liberating to be able to understand more about what we are experiencing, accepting ourselves, and be more compassionate.
