We all have our ups and downs but majority of us find it incredibly difficult to open up about these events or circumstances. All we want is peace and acceptance from others. So why do we feel ashamed of admitting we need help? Theoretically we all want the same thing…. Right??
Steps before talking about your mental health:
- Take a few minutes and write a list of everything you want to get off your chest.
- Write down everything you want to ask a professional- IF you want to see a professional
- Write down goals you want from opening up. This can be anything you want.
- Write a letter if you’re too embarrassed or too scared to open up or if you don’t know how to start it off.
- Take your time when expressing how you feel.
What if instead you join groups. This can be done anonymously at first until YOU decide to put yourself out there. This can be very beneficial as you could find someone who’s in the same boat as you feeling the way you do and this could end up saving not only yours but that person’s life also. You could open up about your experiences whether good or bad. The importance is incredibly over whelming all you need to do is make that first step. Just remember be proud of yourself ❤️
