Rare Disease

It’s completely natural and deeply human to want love and connection. But the real growth comes when you learn to honor that need without abandoning yourself to meet it. If you find yourself constantly proving your worth, chasing validation, or shrinking just to keep someone close, pause and ask: Is this love costing me my peace?

Instead, shift the focus inward. Practice showing yourself the love you’re seeking. Strengthen your boundaries. Build your self-worth from the inside out. That way, when love arrives, it won’t be something you beg for—it’ll be something you recognize as aligned.

You deserve relationships where you’re celebrated, not tolerated. Start by treating yourself that way first.

Who or what do you need to let go of to make room for that kind of love?

~ Thanks to all. Thanks for all. ~

🥀 Moderate and uncomfortable – Anxiety is affecting my daily functioning and/or sleep.
🌪️ Severe or panic level – Experiencing panic and needing extra support.

We all have something we’re good at (yes, this includes you too!). 😊 And receiving a compliment based on those things — a talent, a skill, a personality trait — can mean the world.

What’s the biggest compliment someone can give you that would mean a lot? Why is that?

For Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks , the biggest compliment she can get is someone telling her they enjoy her company. She loves to know that she is valued is the spaces that she’s in.

Hi, Mighty friends! 🫶

Even when our health or circumstances make some days — or every day — feel challenging, we still deserve gentle reminders, encouraging messages, and affirmations. We have value, and we are worthy of good things.

Finish this sentence: I am worthy of __________.

Sending extra love your way today! 💌

We’ve all heard it on airplanes: “Put your own mask on before helping others.”
But how often do we actually apply that to our everyday lives?

Say no when you need to. Rest when you're tired. Heal yourself before you try to save the world.

Happy Monday, Mighties! 🌸

A new week means a new theme and our theme this week is ✨compliments✨.

Praise can come from a lot of places: a loved one, friend, co-worker, or stranger on the street. And, depending on the person, those compliments can elicit different feelings or reactions. Some of us may feel a sense of excitement, relief, or pride; while others are more hesitate or doubtful, which is also completely valid — no judgment here. 🙋

What is your experience? Is it easy for you to accept compliments from others?

Answer "true" or "false" in the comments below. ⬇️

Happy Friday! 🌹

What’s on your agenda for the weekend? Are you planning to rest, get some fresh air, enjoy fun activities, catch up on sleep, or do absolutely nothing?

On a fundamental level, we all have different needs because our life experiences are unique to each of us.

And for those of us here on The Mighty who have an added layer of health conditions to take into consideration, those needs may change or fluctuate depending on each day. Our love languages, in turn, may also be affected.

If you can create your own love language based on your health needs, what would it be?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks love language would be open and engaging conversations, and patience with one another.
