Today is #TimeToTalk Day. Time to talk about mental health with no stigma attached.
I think it is so sad that as a population we feel that we can’t talk openly about mental health. Chances are, if you have never suffered mental health issues yourself, then you know someone who has. Openly or not.
I’m one of those that feels comfortable talking openly about it. I suffer with anxiety and depression. Plain & simple.
But it’s not always so plain and simple.
If you know somebody is suffering, please make the time to talk. Even a simple “How are you?”. Even if they are not fine, it feels good that someone cares when at that time they may think nobody does.
That person at the bus stop. Say hello. They may be feeling like the loneliest person in the world, but you could make them smile. They may be feeling really anxious that day and may just give a smile, but please know that you have just made their day.
Don’t avoid them. Mental health is not a disease. You can’t catch it if you get too close.
Please.
Make time. Time to talk.
