Brandon Marshall is Stronger Than Stigma

During the summer of 2011, Brandon Marshall was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder.

Brandon Marshall is an All-Pro wide receiver for the New York Jets of the National Football League (NFL). Brandon juggles life as a pro athlete with his life behind the scenes living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).

Bring Change 2 Mind, in partnership with Brandon Marshall’s Project 375, launched #StrongerThanStigma to raise awareness around the unique challenges that men face when discussing mental health, to encourage open dialogue, and to promote help seeking behavior.

In 2011, Brandon made the decision to use his story to encourage others suffering in silence to seek treatment. To further their message, Brandon and his wife, Michi, who holds a B.A in Psychology and a B.S in Criminal Justice, formed The Brandon Marshall Foundation, now called Project 375, which is a non-profit organization committed to raising awareness through education, support, research, and treatment funding.

Brandon hopes that by sharing his story other people will find the strength to share their story and ask for help too.
