#LittleVictories & #LifeWithAnxiety / #LifeWithDepression

So I’m a big advocate for Mental Health and spreading awareness about it. A lot of people suffer from mental illness and yet there’s a stigma towards it. Fortunately, in the recent years, more and more people are becoming more open about mental health issues as well as talking about their own experiences. I want to do the same.

Just recently I’ve started using the hashtags #LittleVictories and #LifeWithAnxiety / #LifeWithDepression to show the highs and lows of my experience with mental illness. I think and hope that doing this will inform people of the struggles of mental illness. 

#LifeWithAnxiety / #LifeWithDepression : to express the struggles and obstacles you face with these specific mental illnesses.

#LittleVictories : to express you overcoming your mental illness in small or minor ways, because it’s little steps that could help lead up to becoming better. 

If you’d like to participate as well, share posts with the hashtags above or your own hashtag with whatever mental illness you’re struggling with! Let’s end Mental Health Stigma!!

Example of how to use the hashtags:

I was thinking about killing myself tonight. Intead of following through with that I went to Walgreens and bought three different hair dyes and nail polish.

Just Breathe

In...

and

out…

In…

out…

Sometimes

The bravest thing you can do

Is to keep breathing.

Expand your chest as though

It’s an act of defiance.
