christophrwood: Well look at that: it’s Mental Health Month again! And what interesting timing for me, personally… let’s talk about it.This year has tested me in so many ways, providing some of the best moments of my life while also finding new ways to kick me when I was down. It was infuritating—I had so much to be grateful for and so many aspects of my life were lining up just as I’d always dreamed… but all the same I felt this weight in my chest that kept pulling me down and not letting me up. But that’s how depression is. It’s not really concerned with what you consider to be convenient or rational, or ideal. And, this year, I really felt like quitting at times, and giving up. And it was only when I allowed myself to be honest about my struggle that I was finally able to begin the healing process. It was, once again, a turning point for me in my life when I was able to start a sentence about my own wellbeing with “I don’t mind…”. Admitting you need help is the only way to find it. I’m still a work in progress, and not every day is a good day. But I’m working on it. Take care of yourself. Be there for your friends and family, and show yourself the same compassion you would show your best friend. And while you’re at it, use this occasional toxic and negative platform for something positive and good. Because you CAN make a difference, and every time you chose to, you DO.I also want to bring in tons of money for @mentalhealthamerica this month so they can keep doing all the amazing work they’re doing, so buy this shirt and every other new item from the May collection at idontmind.com and make all of our hearts happy. These folks make @idontmind possible!Sending love and kindness to everyone, even the trolliest of trolls out there. Happy Mental Health Month, friends. #IDONTMIND #MentalHealthMonth ◼️♥️ -- source link
