⚡TW: Mental Illness ⚡

It's Mental Health Awareness Month.

A reminder of an “invisible” disease, and that it is, in fact, a valid disease which should be treated as such!

Why I put invisible into “ “? 
Because it is not so invisible if you pay attention - starting with checking in on your close ones.

Why I chose this excerpt from Emily Austin’s book “We Could Be Rats”? 
Because it shows that we as society need to become even more open minded, so that no one has to hide their authentic self. And especially the last part describes really good how many of us are feeling.

Take care of each other, and reach out if your mind is giving you a hard time. Your feelings are valid, and you deserve to be cared for.
