Echo’s Box
Life can suck. Echo’s Box’s goal is to call out real mental health issues that cross boundaries of beliefs and mindsets in order to help humans be human again. Talking about mental health is scary, that needs to change. It’s not therapy, but it is a place to learn how others deal with change and mental health. We also discuss magick, religion, philosophy, and music all in the context of mental health!
