Loise Forest

Meet Loise Forest. She volunteers in her community, writes poetry in her spare time, and loves to laugh. Some days, Loise has the energy of a teenager. Every day, she lives with a depressive disorder. Through treatment and support from networks in her community, Loise has found strength and clarity. Independent, thoughtful, and full of life, it’s not Loise’s illness that defines her – it’s her spirit. FACE IT. Mental illness concerns us all.
