It is a fully online and fully free course that is non-confrontational and 100% confidential, it is all available now. These disorders are extremely tough to live with and take the lives of many people every year. “Students shouldn’t hesitate to confront a mental illness by any means” says Mike Engles, a counselor at Saddleback College.
