What’s the best mental health advice you’ve ever gotten that motivates you in your mental health journey? Mine is before you help others you need to help yourself and also we’re more than our challenges and diagnosis. #ADHD #ADHDInGirls #MentalHealth #Depression #Motivation #AddictionRecovery #Neurodiversity

I’m thinking of trying biofeedback. Do you have experience with it?
1 reaction Defining the way we relate to our mental health challenges, emotions, diagnoses, and obstacles is paramount in fostering resilience and growth.
By cultivating self-awareness, developing healthy coping mechanisms, and seeking support when needed, individuals can transform their relationship with their mental health challenges. Progress, then, becomes a reflection of one’s ability to navigate these challenges with resilience, compassion, and a sense of agency, highlighting the transformative power of the journey itself.

this is one of my favorite photos that I have taken so far this year.
Next month, I’ll be relapse-free for a year since I had my setback. I’m going to treat myself for this anniversary, I think. #Addiction #AddictionRecovery #MentalHealth

I think this is one of the first times I've ever posted on here. I am currently struggling with my anxiety and depression. My anxiety has made it hard for me to be out and about for long before I'm ready to be in the comfort of my home. I'm a recovering alcoholic and addict. Struggling with vaping though I am listening to a good audiobook that seems like it's going to help me with that aspect.
I currently live with my parents until I get back up on my feet. It seems that it's taken longer for that to happen although that's the part of the alcoholic/addict brain, wanting that instant gratification. I am seeing a therapist and trying to get my medications balanced out which seems like they are at the present moment. I'm so thankful for the mighty! I feel like I can relate to a lot of you on here and I'm grateful for that. If anyone ever feels like chatting, just send me a message as I would love to have a larger support group as well as making friends.
I've reached a point in my life where I'm just tired of being around toxic people. All I want is to love myself and develop healthier relationships. I want less drama in my life although sometimes I know that all drama can't be avoided. Okay that's enough for my rambling. Just grateful that I found this place.

I need help. I have pushed pretty much everyone around me away to the point that when June happened regardless of why could have been no one believed in me. No matter how much it hurt, in my hurt and anger I also understood. I've been using again and don't know how to take the steps in the right direction. Someone please help me

Did you know?
"Chronic substance use can change the molecular, cellular, and neurocircuitry in the brain that affect emotions and behaviors and can persist after the acute withdrawal symptoms end.
Alcohol: Protracted withdrawal from alcohol is actually well documented. Common symptoms include anxiety, hostility, irritability, depression, mood changes, fatigue, insomnia, problems concentrating and thinking, decreased sex drive, and unexplained physical pain. Anecdotal evidence indicates that symptoms can last 2 years or longer after the last drink. Sleep studies suggest that sleep problems can persist 1-3 years after alcohol consumption stops."#Recovery #AddictionRecovery /americanaddictioncenters.org/withdrawal-timelines-treatments/post-acute-withdrawal-syndrome
