Just a quick message for World Mental Health Day…
I’ve written a post about mental illness a while ago ( https://wordpress.com/post/whatilearnedbeforeiturn30.wordpress.com/1788 ) so I won’t go into detail about my experience..
I just want to say to everyone who is dealing with a mental illness, you are not alone!!! I know first hand, as most of us, how it feels. We are all humans with feelings and emotions and a brain which sometimes doesn’t switch off for days or months…
I know first hand how terrifying and upsetting and overwhelming these irrational thoughts are and how they get you…
Please speak up and ask for help, don’t suffer in silence. It is not embarrassing or taboo or whatever makes you think it’s not OK to ask for help or show how you feel…
I know from personal experience how difficult it can be to ask for help… but please do…
I hope that people keep talking and raising awareness on mental health every day more and more and not just today.
Love you all x
