I’m so proud of you for taking a break for your mental health. It can be hard not to compare yourself to others, but remember you’re your own person. You are so beautifully unique, and just because you need a break doesn’t mean you are any less than them.

I’m so glad you can recognize what you need. Treat your mental health like physical health. You’re trying to run a marathon with a broken leg. You are more than okay to rest and recover! You’ll only come back stronger! I believe in you ❤️❤️❤️

this actually helped me a lot, thank you so much ❤️ i’m always worried that people will think “oh she’s just a loser who sits around doing nothing all day” when actually it’s been so hard just to get out of bed every day, let alone do anything else. thank you for being kind ❤️

Anytime! Mental health is a full time job! I’m so proud of you for just getting out of bed, and if not, I’m proud of you for waking up and still being here! You will never be nor could you ever be a loser ❤️
