RE: If You Are Struggling with a Mental Illness, Do Yourself a Favor and Seek Professional Help!

in #life6 years ago

Thank you for this important awarness post. We need to continue to circulate this kind of content so people can understand how to help others who struggle as well as get help themselves. We still live in an age where it feels socially unacceptable to have these issues but that is so incorrect. Suffering shouldn't remain hidden and it is so very common. Treatment should not be looked at as embarrassing or scandalous but rather the bad attitude towards these conditions. Shame the incosiderate, judgmental individuals in society, not the people who need help. We all need to push the message that help is out there and seeking it is the right choice. Negative self talk, anxiety and depression is REAL and more people suffer than you know. The world needs to be kinder to others, with conditions or not. Resteeming this post because it needs to be shared.
