I know that the month of May was Mental Health Awareness month and we are now in the month of June, but there is a strong sense of urgency for my own mental health. For the past few months I’ve been having more and more days of self-doubt, crying spells, drinking too much, anger, anxiety and problems finishing thoughts and tasks.

This goes back to my previous post regarding self-care. We often spend so much time and energy caring for others that we put our own physical and mental well-being last. I am no different. Yet I am grateful for the individuals that have chosen to share their experiences through this site, because it has helped me process my emotions and learn how to take action.

It is important for me to do the things that keep me stable minded – such as meditation, exercise, healthy eating habits, and getting enough rest. In addition, I have decided to make a conscious effort to find a therapist that can further assist me in dealing with my issues. Thanks for reading..
