Laughter became my survival tool.2. Humor isn’t about ignoring pain; it’s about refusing to let pain define you. That’s how we reclaim our power.3. When someone reads my book and says, ‘OMG, that’s me!’—that’s the moment stigma starts crumbling. 4. The edgier the joke, the more it challenges society’s outdated ideas about mental health.
