Today is the start of CMHA Mental Health Week.
Mental health affects us all. This week let’s focus on all mental health-whether it be good or bad. We need to recognize and celebrate the role of good mental health and how it aids in living the life we want! Even for someone like me, who is still very much struggling, it’s important to celebrate the small wins. The small wins are a step in the right direction and help us get to where we want to be. Even if all you did today was get out of bed or brush your hair, it’s important to celebrate those times where your mental illness didn’t get the best of you.
Whether you are mentally ill or not, this week is about you. I’m proud of you for being where you are and doing what you do. This world needs you and you are so important!
