About FindingYourMarbles.com
FindingYourMarbles.com was started by me, Scott Davis, in January 2007. I started the site because I felt that there was a lack of good, informative, and friendly advice available online to help people who suffer from mental illness deal with the day-to-day issues in their lives. There is a need for this information, and I want FindingYourMarbles.com to fill this need by providing this advice in a friendly, respectful and informative way.
I also believe that mental illness should not be a stigma. Mental illness sufferers face terrible discrimination in almost every aspect of their lives. This is wrong. Too many people suffer in silence because they are afraid of being called “crazy.” I myself spent over 20 years in silence because I was afraid to talk about my depression in public.
With FindingYourMarbles.com I break the silence. My hope for this site is that I can help other sufferers discover the strength within themselves to overcome mental illness, and to enjoy lives that are free from shame.
