About Us

Mission
No Kidding, Me Too! is an organization whose purpose is to remove the stigma attached to brain dis-ease through education and the breaking down of societal barriers. Our goal is to empower those with brain dis-ease to admit their illness, seek treatment, and become even greater members of society.

The Goal
Make Brain Dis-ease cool and sexy.  We want a normal conversation in America to be:

     "I have bipolar disorder/schizophrenia/insert dis-ease"

     "No Kidding, Me Too!"

Who Has The Stigma:
Those suffering from brain dis-eases including anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, specific phobias, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating, pyromania, kleptomania, compulsive gambling, addictions, paranoia, multiple personality disorder, gender identity disorder, Down's syndrome, psychosomatic disorder, tic disorders, and others.

How Will NKMT Accomplish This?
h  Create strategic partnerships with members of industry, academia, organizations and government to ensure a broad-based spectrum of support and input.
h  Organize the creative talents of our industry professionals to generate messages for various media and use our celebrity status to ensure these messages are heard. The messages will be of empowerment and acceptance and can include topics as basic as giving job opportunities to those with a brain dis-ease.
h  Coordinate, participate in and generate interest for national and regional educational events consistent with our goal.
