Eating Disorders

I know how convincing the mind can be when you’re struggling. It tells you that you’re too broken, too weak, too far behind, or that things will never change for you. But the people you admire who overcame anxiety, depression, fear, heartbreak, or failure are not special or superhuman. They simply kept moving forward despite what their mind was telling them. Growth begins when you stop treating every negative thought like a fact and start giving yourself the same chance you believe other people deserve.

What is one thing your mind has been trying to convince you that you’re not capable of?

The other day, I found myself in the gift section of a local convenience store, picking out something for a friend. As I passed the greeting cards, some made me laugh, while others caught my attention with their beautiful and thoughtful designs. It got me thinking: if I were to give my younger self a card, which one would I choose, and what would I say?

I’ve been reflecting on this, and I think I’d choose one with pop-out butterflies, glitter, and bright, vibrant colors. Inside, I’d write: “You’re safe now. It’s okay to relax your shoulders and take a deep breath. You deserve to feel proud of yourself. Despite everything you’ve been through, you are a sight to behold—a true treasure.”

What about you?

Happy Monday, Mighties! 💌

If you could describe your health using just one word, what would it be? Your word can reflect a symptom, a pattern you’re noticing, a realization, a treatment that’s working (or one you’re trying), or a challenge you’re navigating.

Happy May, Mighties! 💐

It’s already May—let’s check in on our goals. What’s your main mental health goal this month? What do you want to make sure you’re actively working on or moving toward?

I’ll go first! For me, it’s being more mindful of my stress levels. They really impacted my health in April, so I need to make stress management my #1 priority moving forward.

How about you?
