At the turn of the year we want to focus on new beginnings, opportunities and reincarnation we have to face in connection with mental illness in the everyday; as a person affected, a friend or family member. Even though a start is associated with a positive feeling and chance at first, the flip side can be the end anticipating this re-start

It includes the struggle to break the cycle, step out of your comfort zone, out off the closet, leaving luggage behind and making yourself vunerable.

Thanks to all the contributors for helping us create the third issue of NOUS a big thank you as well to our supporter Clive Parkinson and Tracey Emin.
