I have gone out on a limb and created two groups for us to pool our power and to fight our personal challenges along with the public's response to them. Join me in fighting our pain through #IntercessionforIllness and doing what we can to #StopTheStigma . We are #StrongerTogether . #MightyTogether #TheMighty
I'm wondering if it's just me and if I'm right it's probably not. So I've noticed that each day of the week carries with it certain pressures and feelings that come about for me. Friday, I am calm. I feel at ease that the week is over and I'm going into the weekend. Saturday, I sleep in and hide from the world but then somehow come alive and feel vibrant enough to do something. Sunday, I begin feeling angst and feeling guilty for what I haven't done and panicked about all that I have to do. It takes a toll on me sleep-wise and intensifies my negative self-talk. Monday, I am drained before I even get out of bed because my mind has exhausted and raked me over the coals all night. Tuesday, I am afraid that I won't make it through the rest of the week without being confused and unmotivated. Wednesday, I feel the desire to hang on just a little bit more because I'm halfway there and it's almost over. Thursday, anxiety kicks in because I haven't really accomplished anything worth discussing and the vicious cycle continues on and on, week after week. Have you experienced this? Do you have any advice that could help me? #Anxiety #stressful #Adulting #Bipolar #mood #MoodDisorder #Depression #Bipolar2 #SocialAnxiety #sundowns #wellness #stressfuldays #harddays #StrongerTogether
This was literally the difference between choosing to stay or not…
I was depressed and the self-harm thoughts were strong. I had hit a low. Lots of bad days.
I don’t tell anyone this, but the little things people do to show they care or love me really mean a lot to me. This meant a lot to me because I always feel like I have to hold everything in so it was nice to be told it was OK to let it out and drop the fake smile, to know someone wanted to see that other side of me even if it’s not so pretty.
I was in a dark place and needed reassurance.
I am in the process of coming out of a long battle with depression.
This was extremely helpful and I really appreciate it 😊

What could we do that would make it more fun for everyone to participate and start to become closer friends #FriendshipGenX #StrongerTogether #mental Health
OK. This is probably weird but I am giving it a try. So say you are going to a place, any place, doesn't matter, and you can't bring people or pets, so you have one item you are allowed to bring with you. What would your special item be? Have some fun with this, I hope! #Friends #Friendship #friendships #MightyTogether #MentalHealth #FamilyAndFriends #New #lonely #alone #NoOneFightsAlone #StrongerTogether #Together #SocialInteraction #social #wellness #EmotionalHealth #Health #relate #Chat #Share #post #safe #SafeSpace #Connections #Positivity #positive #Fun #Mindful #Mindfulness #Kindness #ActsOfKindness #ActOfKindness Self-esteem Self-worth #self -love #Confidence #Life #Lifestyle
Hi everyone! We just made this group private instead of it being a publicly seen group.
This means all group content will only be visible to members of the group.
Now everyone in our group can feel completely comfortable sharing about yourself and anything about your life in here, and posting your own posts in here and no worries about letting us really get to know each other so we can achieve this group’s purpose-to grow new, genuine friendships because what’s in this group is only for us to see!

Doesn’t this image and idea look like a paradise?
Link to join us in this new adventure:
We all came on The Mighty ultimately to make new, real connections and to grow new friendships to get rid of this terrible thing called loneliness/being alone that is not good for anyone’s mental health and we all want better mental health.
We all want to have friendships too based on the simple fact that we are humans and humans need to feel connected to other humans.
And the twist with this group, is to all pitch in to make this a place on The Mighty where we don’t focus on our illnesses, because we are more than our illnesses, so much more. And we don’t want to forget that about ourselves. We don’t want to have our personalities get lost, all of the different, cool, unique things that make us who we are as people.
So let’s all pitch in and start just chatting about everyday stuff like you would with any friend, about life in general, sharing things about yourself- just a couple examples -your interests, something you found funny, etc., whatever you would think that this is something you would like to share with a friend, and having some fun being social- because we all know we need to really connect and keep growing new friendships with our mental health in mind.
One smile emoji or even one word can start a friendship. Some of the most comforting words in the universe are “me too.” “Hello.” “How is your day?”…(if you don’t have another conversation starter or reply to join in).
New friends can change your life and your mental health for the better.
Add in anything to get the ball rolling and grow some new friendships here.
We can’t wait to get to know You.

A chronic illness is a difficult journey, but how we approach it is up to us. We can allow this situation to overtake us, or we can use it as an opportunity to build character and endurance. It's up to us!
