How does your health affect your relationships?

Having a mental health condition, chronic illness, and/or disability can affect your life in many different ways, including the relationships you have with the people in around you. From work connections, to building and maintaining friendships, familial relationships, or even dating — health can either strengthen or weaken bonds. It can even cause bonds to break.

What have your experiences been like? How does your health play a role?

What do you need from yourself today?

Let’s share a specific need we have for ourselves today! This need can be anything from pacing yourself through your to-do list to going outside for fresh air, setting aside some dedicated time for self-reflection, or taking a day off from work (or adulting!).

Mighty staffer @xokat says she needs the strength and energy to power through a few appointments/blood work in the afternoon.

TRUE or FALSE: I find it easy to honor my needs.

Happy Monday, Mighty family!

This week we’ll be reflecting on honoring our needs.

What exactly does that mean? Glad you asked! From our emotional to mental to physical health, we all have different ways we navigate the world around us. And since we’re people with varying experiences, the things we need in each of those buckets may look different.

There’s no shame at all in having needs, prioritizing them, and communicating those needs to the people or environments around us.

Do you feel it’s easy for you or is it something you’re working toward improving?

💡 P.S. It’s OK to reflect, act, and prioritize our needs for our well-being. In fact, it’s often necessary.

Is It Just Me?

I'm tired of being everyone's counselor.

I'm tired of being everyone's lover.

I'm tired of being everyone's confidant.

Who is my counselor? Lover? Confidant?

Who is the person who drops everything when I need them to listen?

to love me?

to know all my secrets?

Where is my pure happiness?

Where is my future security?

Maybe... it is only me.

Tell us about a time you stood up for yourself.

Hearing the success stories of others who stood up for themselves can be really comforting and motivating — especially if we’re trying to gather the courage to do it ourselves!

Mighty staffer @xokat says she felt really free when she set boundaries for how her weekends would be spent socially, and no longer packs the calendar when her health pays the price. Not everyone in life understands, but those opinions have ultimately spoke volumes about priorities!

Feel free to share your own story below. ⬇️
