Welcome Readers!

Hello, my name is Ben Romberg, creator of The Upstairs Battle Facebook Page. I've created this website/blog to be not only a place to share information on mental health, but to be a place to share my personal story. I have depression and anxiety.

Our mental health is just as important as our physical health. One effects the other and vice versa. The Mental Illness Facts page is a great resource to use, whether you are personally affected or know someone who is.

As I write this blog, we are currently dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. The toll it's currently and will continue to take on our mental health is unimaginable right now.

I'm looking forward to being a voice for those struggling with their mental health. You are invited to share your own voice along with me. We need more people to inspire hope during these difficult times and into the future.

You are not alone. Together, we are stronger!

- Ben
