It's fine not to be fine ♡
An Easy Mental Well-Being Guide:
Hey friend, something very important let's discuss. Life is
sometimes not all sunshine and rainbows; it's quite natural. You don't need to
be okay every day.
Sometimes we feel under pressure to always smile, to always
be busy, to always have it all together. But here's the reality: we are humans
not robots. Both good days and bad days are acceptable; we have both kinds of
days.
Grasping Your Emotions:
Your feelings come and go like weather patterns. Feeling
depressed, anxious, or overburdened does not indicate you have anything wrong
with you. It means you're living life with all of its ups and downs.
Consider your brain as a garden. Sometimes beautiful flowers
are flowering; sometimes there are weeds. One is a natural component of the
garden. Learning how to gently care for it is essential.
Recall: Struggling does not make you weak. Requesting help
does not weigh you down. Taking time to recover doesn't make you lazy.
Little movements are important:
Sometimes getting out of bed is your mountains, and that's
fine; every little action adds up: Tomorrow you don't have to scale a mountain.
Taking a glass of water
Taking a bath
Sending a text to a friend
Three quick breaths
These are acts of self-care when you're suffering, not just
little stuff.
Deal with Yourself Gently:
Picture yourself conversing with a close friend going
through difficulties. You wouldn't accuse them or advise them to simply get
over it, would you? You would show compassion. Try to show yourself that same
compassion.
Change With I'm doing my best right now, I should be better
by now. Replacing Why am I behaving like this? with What do I require just
right?
Asking for assistance is fine:
At times, we all need help. Speaking with a friend, family
member, counselor, or therapist shows self-awareness and strength rather than
weakness.
You need assistance. You deserve understanding. You are
deserving of attention. And, most crucially, you ought to feel better.
Last Words ♡
Healing is not straight. Some days you will feel excellent;
other days you will regress. That all forms part of the trip. The main thing is
that you go at your own speed in your own style.
Your bad days are not you. You are not your challenges. Even
on the days when it doesn't feel like it, you are a whole, fully realized
person who is deserving of love and pleasure.
Breathe deeply. You're doing better than you imagine. And
keep in mind that it's all right to not be okay.
