On this #worldmentalhealthday we are encouraging us all to take a moment today to take honest stock of our own emotional well-being. 

Things to ask yourself:

🖤Am I taking care of myself? 
🖤Am I suffering when I could be getting support? 
🖤Am I priding myself on being busy, when I am in fact exhausted? (Especially Mamas) 
🖤Am I hiding depression or anxiety to protect the people around me?

You are not alone 💞The last 18 months have amplified issues for many people across many cultures that have already be struggling with including but not limited to undue stress and anxiety, poor self-esteem, eating issues, and family strife. All of these challenges have been exacerbated over the course of the panorama. 

“There is a common misconception that people who struggle do so, in part, because they take a passive role in caring for their mental health.” - Dr. Christina 

“I often hear the long list of unsolicited advice people offer, saying “Have you tried....” in an effort to provide solutions for the presenting problem.

And while many of these comments are spoken from a place of love, it’s important to recognize that the majority of people ARE actively trying to take care of their mental health.” - Dr. Christina 

Here’s a gentle reminder that you can do all of the things and still struggle with your #mentalhealth❤️‍🩹

Let today be the day we stop apologizing for the things we’re struggling with 💞 - tweets by dr.christina_
