For World Mental Health Day I want to share a video project I did thanks to Kevin McQuade video and production skills.

Not the best picture but the most recent. 44 feeling 35ish.

Steinbach 8:16am. Possible shelf coming in from the north, with the breeze coming in from the south. #mbstorm

Depression is a silent thief. It steals so quietly and so slowly you don’t know what it’s taken. Then one day you realize you are not who you were, and you realize who you are you don’t want to be. That recognition is critical in the battle to get yourself back.

1:15pm. Clouds approaching Steinbach for the last hour from the NE. Nothing ominous (yet). I’m guessing it’s buildup to another #mbstorm but time will tell.

An update from this week's Giving Voice to Depression podcast guest.

We wondered if his thoughts about 'masking' his depression have changed.

Here's what he wrote: thephoenixnarrative.blog/2023/06/04/the… #mentalhealth #peersupport #life Andrew Penner

Thanks to Giving Voice to Depression 🎙 Podcast for reposting my interview on wearing a mask to hide my depression. I wouldn’t be where I am without your podcast and the SickNotWeak community (among others)

Do you 'mask' to hide your depression (anxiety, grief, etc.)?

Is putting on a happy face a healthy strategy? A problem? Both?

Good news for those of us living with mental illness in Manitoba. It’s not going to fix wait times for specialized care but it’s good to see this at the crisis response level! SickNotWeak #SickNotWeak

Steinbach around 8:40pm. Facing NW. Temp dropping, wind picking up. Distant lightning/thunder and it smells like rain. #mbstorm

Moments like this, where we're together, on all levels, in the moment completely, I'm thankful. Blessed beyond measure. There's still real life out there, real stress, real bills, real heartache. But right here, right now, it's just us. And it's perfect ♥️💜♥️💜♥️💜

Excerpt from a blog post written about a year ago, entitled 'Impostor'. There's something terrifying, yet liberating and cathartic about putting your art 'out there' for the world to see.
