Showing Love on Mental Health Day
Damaged goods, bruised but not broken, a high-functioning mess — just some of the good stuff we like to call ourselves when we’re aware that something might be off. But notice how there’s still a positive connotation thrown in that description. That’s because we know we’re trying.
You might be stressed, burned out, unstable, and it may be an invisible condition, but you’re fighting the hardest of all fights: your human mind. It’s not easy, give yourself credit.
On this Mental Health Day, I wanted to join the masses in raising awareness to keep fighting social stigma and promote inclusion and acceptance. Mental well-being has become a very important subject for me in the past few years for a lot of different reasons (my Not Another Inspirational Quote book is my own little contribution to help fight mental challenges, intrusive thoughts, and social prejudices) and I wanted to remind you that existing is hard enough, and you’re doing your best. Also, this is a reminder that you’re not alone. It’s OK to reach out for help.
Let us all be kind for everyone’s fighting their own battles.
