I am the change. (And you are, too.) ✋

Mighty family — we have the incredible opportunity to change the way so many people in this world view mental health, emotional wellness and suicide.

You’re already doing this — by showing up even on the hard days, by being open and honest about what you’re going through, by checking in with yourself and one another, and by supporting and reminding each other we’re not alone each and every day.

Today, I pledge to be the change. And I hope you’ll join me — because *you already are the change.*💪

Let’s stand together: Post a selfie like mine, or simply post “I Am The Change.”

The road may not be easy, but I’m glad we’re walking it side by side. 🐾

If you are struggling today

Today will be especially triggering for music fans with mental illness due to the anniversary of Chester Bennington's death, and the volume of content surrounding #Suicide etc there will today.

Make time for self care and allow yourself to step back from it, for as long as you need to.

If you want to reach out, comment here and know you're not alone.

Stay Mighty 💖

Mild TW: suicide, anxiety.

I've already said how much I love this community. I've found myself leaning on it quite heavily, because it feels like a "safe space" and my #Anxiety and #Cyclothymia have been acting up. It's coming up to the one year anniversary of Chester Bennington's death by #Suicide and I'm unsurprised to feel myself triggered by it; and part of me feels like I need to apologise for or justify that. The truth is that rightly or wrongly, he was a symbol of hope and recovery for me, and the loss of that, the way it happened, hit me hard.
