Emotional care is a daily journey and mental health self-aid should be a key component of your treatment program, experts say, and I can attest to this fact by the huge role that I play in getting myself from Treatment-Resistant Depression of the severest level of Major Depressive Disorder inherited from both sides of my family along with their generational traumas, amongst other Complex Traumas/C-PTSD, to Partial Remission, which means that my acute emotional symptoms have abated/subsided and actually are truly gone (according to the experts description).
The only “residual” symptom I have left is a physical symptom- fatigue, which is nowhere near as bad as it used to be, but there are a couple “ADLs” (Activities of Daily Living) that I do need help with.
What I pulled together and updated to share with every single member of our Mighty community is what highly-educated, behavioral health professionals have provided us —specific, well-known, respected mental health and emotional wellbeing websites— quality of information, tools, resources, and support that we all need and have at our fingertips everyday.
If the website pages below do not show up as links, I would be happy to try to put the individual links in conversation threads below if anyone would like me to.
As they say, Knowledge is Power.
My hope is that you put the power into your own hands, and also let us know in the comments below if you have more to add to the below list or if you are familiar with some of these, if you have utilized them and what you think of them.
And, please share this post and the vast amount of knowledge, tools, resources, and support that is here free and accessible to Everyone.
Also, I implore loved ones, partners, friends, family, caregivers to step up more to help us have the environment in which this hard work we push through is not for nothing, but acknowledged, understood, and appreciated.
