NORMALIZE MENTAL HEALTH
Let us normalize talking about mental health.
Let us normalize feeling shitty and not okay.
Let us normalize the fact that everyone goes through bad days.
We should not hide, we should not pretend to be okay, we should not feel guilty when our mental health is not at a hundred percent.
It is normal and therefore we should normalize it.
Mental health is a health issue, not a taboo topic.
We should all be able to express our emotions, to say when we are not doing okay, to seek help from family, friends and professionals.
It is about time that we realize that struggling with mental health does not make us attention seekers, does not make us weak, does not make us hopeless cases.
In fact, pulling yourself through difficult times, being there for yourself and holding on despite the pain are signs of incredible strength which should be acknowledged.
We. Need. To. Talk. About. It. NOW. Day 1
