A new director will be appointed shortly to head the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in Bethesda, Maryland. The NIMH is inviting comments from the public on the state of mental health research for its new director. This is a wonderful opportunity for those impacted by BPD to express their needs and advocate for more BPD research! Many of you wrote fantastic comments on this petition, and have lived experience with BPD to share with the government. Please consider submitting your comments directly to the NIMH! If you would like to receive a user-friendly guide to filling out the survey, email info@emotionsmatterbpd.org, and it will be sent to you as a pdf. Otherwise, follow the link, http://1.usa.gov/1XrVWXn, for more information. All submissions must be 500 words or less, and submitted by June 30, 2016. Thank you! Emotions Matter, Inc.
