This is the month where we bring even more attention to mental health. There are a lot of people who don’t acknowledge it or will just say it is an excuse but I am here to tell you that it is not. Mental Illness is real. It is not a joke and it is not an excuse. It is something that is taking away people from this earth each and every day. Take the time to call or text someone to see how they are doing. During this time while this pandemic is going on reach out to people. Let them know that they care and that they are special. So many are hurting inside and don’t know how to tell people. So many send signs and signals but people ignore them. The strongest person may be the one that is hurting deep inside and is waiting for someone to just reach out to them and just say I’m here”. I only can speak on how I feel and what I go through. I know how it feels to feel all alone, and to feel like nobody cares. It hurts and it eats you up inside. I know how it feels to be there for everyone but it felt like nobody is there for you. It tears you up. Mental Illness makes you feel like you are in a desert with no water and no shade and you are just trying to survive. You are not alone. That is what I want people to know. You are not alone in your feeling and you are loved. You are special and you are needed. Whenever those thoughts come into you mind, replace them with the thoughts of love and people. Family and friends. Life in general. The wind and the rain. The sun and the moon. Take all the in because that is what you will be missing and they will be missing you. Every day is a struggle. I know that because I do struggle everyday. I talk to myself to get through the day all the time because that is how I deal with my mental struggles. Stay strong and believe in yourself.
