This week is #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek here in the UK. And for the past few days I’ve been trying to put my scattered thoughts into words.
I understand Mental Health Awareness Week is about breaking down taboos, about starting conversations and step by step change. But how does changing the colour of a building help? With cuts to mental health services, and waiting times for support stretching months into the future. Suicide, depression, eating disorders, self-harm & anxiety are all on the raise. It goes on, and on.
And yet, so many like myself, are struggling. Are battling every day. Finding it difficult to get out of bed in the morning. You never truly know what is going on behind the laughter, the positive vibes quote, the cute Insta picture. You never know what’s going on behind closed doors, whose wrists contain scars. You may never realise which co-worker had a panic attack in the toilet, or that a person’s number one aim is to get to the end of the day, alive.
I’m so disappointed in the state of Mental Health Services and the way people with mental health illnesses are treated. I am also so proud of all of those who are battling on. Who despite the odds and often the war going on within their own brain, are continuing on. You are so much more than your illness or struggle, so much more than your scars or pain.
For alot of us struggling with mental ill-health there doesn’t seem to be a light at the end of the tunnel. Many stories are not ones of a crashing triumphant, victory. But tales of tiny steps, of combing hair or brushing teeth, of saying yes or stepping outside the front door.
Mental health awareness shouldn’t just be a week, but a way of life. It is something that is not invested in enough, but is costing so many so much.
We need education and investment in services and love; but I cross my fingers and hope that more change will come. That the world will no longer only accept that which is totally perfect, but also those who are messy or broken, scarred or bruised ❤️ [Due to character limits, I have not shared my full piece here. I’d love it if you would head on over to my blog to read the whole piece. Link is in my bio]
Oh fuck you lemons!
What else can I do with life lemons...
squeeze them in ppls eyes who make me sad
Make cake!
Add to cocktails and other rum based products
Throw at people I dont like

On a serious note I'm trying to accept my metaphorical lemons for what they are, telling myself that il learn something from all this dosnt feel helpful while I'm in it but I know I will as there is something to be learnt from everything we do.
I'm struggling to be kind to myself today, I dont think I have felt this low in a while...captin Morgan may have contributed but if I'm honest I think as well as being strong for so long, there is still alot of heart ache and confusion about and it's really draining me. ...I'm not doing overly well with not giving into impulses when it comes to some ppl at the moment and it's making me sad coz I thought I'd turned a corner after learning a but more comtrol from whenmy marriage ended but it feels like I just cant stop and the impulses are so strong...I have to physically sit on my hands to stop myself...and then in other ways I'm being so sensible that its painful to just keep ignoring urges I'm getting, I really feel so confused atm... I feep like I have been split in two alot over the last few days and weeks... I wonder if that's old behaviour vs new thought processes etc....
SUNDAY WIND DOWN .
.
This is how I plan to spend my Sunday evening! Stanley is still running riot so I won’t get to ready anything properly until he’s tucked in bed out the way haha!
.
I mentioned a while ago about opening up a bit more about mental health on here and the response I got was incredible! I have a blog post in process but I’ve rewritten it a few times now so who knows when it’ll get published!! But my mood has been up and down today and my anxiety is feeling harder to keep in check. So I’m going to dive back into this book! I started it a while ago and enjoyed it but then never finished it. So I’m starting again and going to focus on what’s inside because what I read last time was amazing!
.
For anyone struggling with anxiety etc you got this! I saw a little square on insta recently that said “you are not your anxiety” and I really liked that!
Con El Paso del tiempo he aprendido que ⭐️no se puede agradar a todo el mundo ⭐️que las cosas que un@ hace siempre desagradará a alguien y est@ te dirá que lo haces mal⭐️que la mente y el cuerpo también se cansan y se enferman⭐️aveces también es bueno alejarse de todo y tod@s!! ⭐️que no existen las mamás o papás perfecto@s y que me equivoco más veces de las que acierto ⭐️que mi amor es igual por Feña Franco y Matilda ⭐️que no funciono bajo sus presiones⭐️ y hace un par de añitos fui diagnosticada con trastorno de ansiedad⭐️todavía YO estoy aprendiendo a vivir con esto así que no espero que alguien más lo entienda
