My thoughts on mental health

 

I care for my mental health. It all starts with self-love. I spend time to take care of myself such that I get immense mental satisfaction. I am not stuck at a particular stage of life; I am not apprehensive of moving on. I have the fortitude to laugh at my own fallacies, at the same time not demeaning myself. I see to it that when I talk about my negative and frightened feelings, my thoughts don’t overwhelm me. I always talk out my problems, which are empathized with, but to get over it is entirely upon me. I am the best healer of myself. I have my own shortcomings; I have my bad times; I feel anguished; I feel frustrated; there is no meaning in denying them. When I accept these situations as they are, then I am accepting myself. The journey from the darkest hours in my life to the most fulfilling one can be definitely rewarding once I realize that it is my willpower and grit that count at the end of the day. For all the negativity I see, it is the need of the hour to realize that there is so much to optimism; and the drive to keep moving wont let me give up.
