Mai Lien, our beloved friend and comrade, is bearing the challenges of a demanding undergraduate program and work stress, amongst other activist and extracurricular work. These have left them feeling worn out and spread thin, lending to a declining state of mental health. Mai is struggling to feel capable and cared for.
It is our responsibility as a support network to remind Mai that they are loved, they are inspiring, and they are not alone! When feelings don't match reality, it's always good to have tangible reminders of the support one has. A full list of supporters can provide that reminder.
Please take a minute to sign, it will mean the world to them, and give them strength to persist.

Mai ~ We have yet to meet, but if you are dear to Sylvia, you are loved by Sylvia’s mom. Please take a moment to listen to what your body/soul need. You can’t save the world if either are empty. Much love. ❤️
You’re one of the most powerful, analytical, political, and compassionate people I’ve ever met. Nolite te bastardes carborundorum—don’t let the bastards grind you down.
We don't know each other that well but I am really proud to call you comrade, and seeing how sharp and on point you were as a new member is part of what's inspired me to get back on the wagon. You're great!
You are an inspiring person! I hope you will remember to put yourself first, even if it means stepping back from some things. Your wellness matters! ❤️
Mai! Knowing you has easily been one of the best, if not the single best part of my life. I feel incredibly lucky to have met you and I honestly look up to you not just in your activism but in life in general. You're an inspiration ❤️ - Ryry
You can do it!
So glad to have met you. Your ykb piece was so touching. You have important stuff to say. School can suck, I had a bad time too for a while with mental health stuff. It's gets better, then sometimes a little worse but then better again...brains and chemicals and science stuff. I miss you and Sylvia. I hope everything is good in Madison. Aarushi and I are gonna be back at the beginning of December.

Mai is such an inspiration to me because of how boldly and bravely they move through this world. Ever since I met them, they have been incredibly warm and welcoming to me, always reaching out and being a great pal. They are a significant part of what makes the queer poc community great in Madison. So much love
