Sometimes it’s hard to explain how you feel to others around you. Especially if they don’t suffer with the very thing that consumes you.

When the darkness creeps in and your whole self feels wrong and you can’t really find the words to say😞

Such a powerful message to put out there.

Spend time and mental energy on issues you can control and influence, while letting go of things that are outside of your control.

Ask for help when you need it.

All of us need support from time to time.

Reaching out for help is a sign of strength.

Staying silent isn’t being strong.

Once you own it, it’s yours , you have the control.

You can be happy and live a fulfilling life whilst you suffer with your mental health.
