Rare Disease

Your own thoughts can sometimes feel like the harshest enemy.
They whisper doubts, magnify flaws, and convince you of things that aren’t true.

No one else can hurt you the way your own mind can when it goes unchecked.
But the truth is, you don’t have to believe every thought that comes to you.

Guard your mind the way you’d guard your health. Protect your inner peace. Because the moment you stop letting your thoughts control you, they lose their power.

Start noticing your thoughts today. The more you practice, the stronger your awareness becomes. Does this work for anyone?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how I recovered from depression and suicide back when I was a teen.

Hi Mighties! ✨

As we begin a new week, let’s take a moment to reset and reflect on how we can best care for ourselves in the days ahead.

How can you show yourself kindness and compassion today? In what ways can you pause and slow down? What tools from your self-care toolbox might be most helpful this week? Who can you reach out to for support if you need it?

Share your thoughts with us below! 💭

Happy Monday, Mighty fam!

Let's talk about ✨ acceptance ✨ this week.

While we all go through the process of acceptance on some level, accepting something is a personal journey where we notice, acknowledge, come to terms with, and embrace what we're experiencing without judgment. This may look and feel different for everyone, and that's 100% OK.

What does acceptance mean to you? What does it look and feel like?

When you are in the middle of depression, optimism can feel impossible. Your mind tells you every reason why things are hopeless and convinces you that you should give up before you even begin.

But here’s the thing: optimism isn’t about pretending everything is perfect. It’s about giving yourself permission to see even the smallest possibility of light in the middle of the darkness.

Choosing optimism does not erase your pain, but it creates space for hope to exist alongside it. And hope is often the first step toward healing.

So today, ask yourself: what is one small thing I can be optimistic about? Maybe it’s a conversation you’ll have, a moment of peace, or simply the fact that you’ve made it this far.

It feels better to choose optimism, even in small doses. And with time, those small choices can add up to a new way of living.

What’s one thing you can feel optimistic about today? Share it in the comments and let’s remind each other that hope is possible.

We often hear the phrase, “We all have the same 24 hours in a day.” But when you’re living with a health condition (or several), those hours don’t always feel the same. Balancing responsibilities, goals, and self-care often depends on the energy and capacity we have in each moment.

What is something you wish you had more time or energy for in your days or weeks? Can small steps help you make more space for it? What's making it challenging to prioritize?

We all have different levels of responsibilities, tasks, and daily chores that take up a portion of our day and brain space because, well... we just have to get them done. (Adulting is #fun!)

But, do you ever feel like there’s one or more of those things that take up much more time than it has to and could use a revamp or different approach?

For Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks that thing is how long it takes her to make a purchasing decision while shopping for herself. She can definitely benefit from simplifying her decision-making process so she feels more confident and it takes her less time and energy to shop.
