Mental Illness Awareness
I feel as though this subject is not talked about enough. Often times it is brushed over and thrown aside even though it is just as important or even more important than physical health. As someone who deals with many things put into this category, I know that some people just brush past it. I tried reaching for help but I was thrown aside. And now I still struggle with it and more times than not I have to conceal it. That is like trying to conceal a broken leg or a gash in your arm. Not easy. (I know that was a bad comparison but you get my point.) What I am trying to say is that some people need your help with this because not everyone accepts it. People cannot believe what their eyes cannot see. If you have a friend or family member, please truly ask them how they are. Not the ‘hey how’s it going?’ and responding with ‘good’ conversation. Sit down with them in person (not over text) and ask them really how they are. Just talking with someone who understands can help. If you do that, you just saved a life. :)
