Today is World Mental Health Day, a day dedicated to global mental health awareness, education, and advisory against social stigma. Created in 1992 by the World Federation for Mental Health, its objective is to raise awareness of mental health issues around the world and to mobilize efforts in support of mental health. 

WMHD’s theme this year is Mental Health Services in Times of Catastrophes and Emergencies. In the unprecedented times we live in, it is now more important than ever that people know help is available. And it’s important to make sure that it always will be.

Happy Wolrd Mental Health Day

Mental health is VERY important, why everyone talks about physical health and no one talks about mental health is beyond me considering how closely the two are linked.

Look after yourself (as hard as that can be sometimes).

it’s World Mental Health Day!!!!

i’m very proud to say i’m 3 years self harm free, and have never been happier in my life and my mind. mental health will forever be something i struggle with - forever something everyone struggles with - but focusing on the little improvements and being grateful for them has helped in so many different ways.

it’s okay to feel sad. it’s okay to not be perfect all the time. it’s okay to be stressed. it’s human to be all of those things, and i hope you guys know you are never ever alone. not in anything. i’m always here to talk, whether you want to talk about your struggles or you just want a chat. and i hope we can all be here for each other, on this day in particular, but every day from now on.

anyway, just wanted to say that. love you guys.

world mental health day

my problems don’t exist if no one else knows about them, right? wrong. 

every 40 seconds someone loses their life to suicide. for every person who dies by suicide, 20 others are attempting. & another 135 are affected by it.

silence kills. lets get chatty. //happy mental health day 2019//

World Mental Health Day

Hello lovelies, on account of world mental health day I’d just like to remind you all: you are amazing, you are unique, and you are valuable. I have been in a place where I didn’t see a point in anything- I wasn’t good enough, I made everyone’s lives harder, and I had no place in this world. It’s not true. For any of you. Even if there isn’t or it seems like there isn’t right now- someone out there cares so, so much about you. And even if you don’t know what it is right now- you have a purpose. This isn’t in a religious way, (although if that is something you believe then I guess it can be?) but rather in the sense that you can make your own purpose. Everything you do shapes who you are, and you can change it if you like. Your life, your attitude, your interests, and interactions with others are always in flux. So if it seems bad right now- wait. Wait one day. Call someone, message someone, just. Wait. And keep waiting and searching for little ways to make things better no matter how small, until you can do bigger things to make things better. Just give yourself time, and help and self care and love and do the same to everyone you can 🥰
