Mental health has come up a lot on this season so far. You always need to be kind to the people around you because you just never know what a person is dealing with.
The stigma around mental health obstacles and the medicine for them really needs to go away. If you take medicine for your mental illness, good for you for doing what you need to do to be your best self! I’m proud of you for realizing you have a need and fulfilling that need.
If you have mental illness that is helped with things other than medicine, great! I’m proud of you for realizing you have a need and fulfilling that need.
And for those of you who are spouses or significant others to a person who has mental illness. I see you. Make sure you take care of yourself.
I’m talking to all of you now. If you need help, reach out. Reach out to a trusted loved one. If you’d rather talk to a stranger, there are call and text lines. If you’d like to talk to me I am more than happy to listen. You can email me at kayleen@scarsweshare.com.
