An honest take on what you might do to improve yourself and others is more to the point.
One problem with the campaign is that it's very focused on trauma without much positivity or discussions of how to make things better. Just focusing on trauma isn't generally good for recovery, and the flow of hard stories can easily create trauma of it's own for people who didn't have them.

So it's not about the sharing as such, it's the way people share. It's why I wrote in a way the way I wrote it, without dark details and with the idea that people can be better.
