#WORLDMENTALHEALTHDAY. ❤️
I've been meaning to write something meaningful on this and it has taken me all day, so here it goes. I battled suicidal thoughts and depression since I was just fourteen years old, back when I used to cut myself as a coping mechanism. The inner dialogue and low self-esteem followed me through my early 20s convincing me that no one liked me and things would never get better.
I want you to know that things can and do get better. And more to the point, you are not alone.

I still suffer from anxiety every single day, but my mental health is stable, and I can honestly say that I am happy. I’ve learnt to read the warning signs and found ways to keep myself afloat, so I wanted to share these things with you in case it helps. ☀️Make a morning schedule
Whether you go to school, work, or are self-employed like me, I’ve found that following a good routine in the morning makes all the difference and saves you from lying in bed feeling impending dread. ? Stay away from social media when you feel low or anxious. You are vulnerable to getting into an instagram black hole and comparing yourself to others
? Read. Reading a good book helps me to switch off from the world and get lost in another world.
? Walk or exercise. Whether it's Kobox, running, or a walk with your dog, get lost in nature.
? Write to-do lists. It helps you feel less overwhelmed and each tick is a small victory.
? Forgive yourself. Understand it's ok to be sad and sometimes you won't get everything done you'd hoped and you'll have to cancel social commitments. Allow yourself to feel sad.
? Talk to someone you trust. Sometimes just saying it out loud helps you to make sense of it all, and allows that person you trust to know how you feel so they can help.
? Listen to Baz Luhrmann’s Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen) - trust me.

I'd love to know what you guys do to deal with mental health. Most importantly, just know that you are not alone, and you will get through it. If you do need to talk the number for the Samaritans in the UK is 116 123 ❤️ #mentalhealthday #selflove #mentalhealthawarenessday #anxiety
