Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 09/09/2026"What's the bravest thing you've ever said?" asked the boy. "Help," said the Horse. - Charlie Mackesy Even as a therapist, there are times I need help. I have my own therapist, and if things feel too heavy I sometimes need medication assistance. There's no shame in needing help. 2442

Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 28/08/2026“You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice.” —Bob Marley Someone once told me that “change occurs when pain outweighs fear” and that always stuck with me. We change when we have to, maybe even are brave when we have to be. 0475
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 27/08/2026"You are not a burden. You have a burden, which by definition is too heavy to carry alone." I like the belief that the first sign of human civilization was a healed femur 15,000 years ago. It meant that someone was injured and someone stayed behind to help them. It’s human to share the burden. 0502
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 26/08/2026“Life doesn't make any sense without interdependence. We need each other, and the sooner we learn that the better for us all.” - Erik Erikson I disagree with those who say we shouldn’t need anyone. We are meant to rely on each other, to support each other. That isn’t weakness, it’s humanity. 0431
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 25/08/2026"Healing takes time, and asking for help is a courageous step." - Mariska Hargitay I feel like asking for help is one of the bravest things someone can do. It takes vulnerability and bravery, and in my opinion, is never a sign of weakness. 1430
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 21/08/2026“You don’t have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you.” – Dan Millman. How I see it, we are not our thoughts, we are how we react to our thoughts and what we choose to do with them. 1362
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 13/08/20263 quick mental health facts: Serious mental illness costs America $193.2 billion in lost earnings per year. In any given year, one in five adults experience a mental health disorder. Roughly one in 25 adults in the U.S. experiences a serious mental illness in a year. Talk about mental health. 2766
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 08/08/2026“What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor, more unashamed conversation.” - Glenn Close I’ve often felt that one of the most effective ways at reducing the stigma around mental health is the simplest one: talking about it. We should treat it like it is - a normal part of human life. 1471
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 02/08/2026A beautiful day with beautiful friends, I can’t ask for more. How’s everyone else taking care of their mental health today? 3851
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I’ve found that practicing daily gratitude is something that has been both very helpful for my mental health and also my view of the world at large. What are you grateful for today? 4802
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Just gotta catch that light just right. Thinking back to soaking some sore muscles in the Blue Lagoon in Iceland. So grateful for the opportunities I have to travel. 11071

Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Iceland was absolutely breathtaking - seeing whales, dolphins, thermal rivers and pools, ice caves, the hikes and mountains, and getting to spend it with the best company I could hope for ♥️ #iceland #adventure #travel 3821

Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 17/03/2026 “Be patient with yourself. Nothing in nature blooms all year.” —Unknown I try to think of my personal growth like climbing a mountain (with no peak, because personal growth never ends). You can't sprint up a mountain, you climb, you rest, you climb, you rest. It's not a race. 0642
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 13/03/2026Your mental health is everything - Prioritize it. Make the time like your life depends on it, because it does. - Mel Robbins This is why it’s so important for me to talk about mental health. Mental health isn’t a convenience, or a privilege. It’s a need. 0810

Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 20/02/2026"What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor, and more unashamed conversation." - Glenn Close This is one of the biggest reasons why I always talk about mental health - how we can reduce the stigma of talking about it is by treating it like it's not something to avoid talking about. 3831
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 18/02/2026Sometimes it’s nice to take a break between clients and get lost in a good comic. 5961

Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 12/02/2026The only thing stronger than hate is love. If I asked you to name all the things you love, how long until you name yourself? 31363
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 03/02/2026“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.” —Louisa May Alcott This is something that I think about often that's helped me - I've let go of the idea that things get easier, as that's honestly out of my control. Things don't get easier, I get stronger. 1831

Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 09/01/2026I used to have a mentality of “if I can’t do my whole workout, why bother” but I realized how self-sabotaging that is. Anything is better than nothing, even if it’s just a little. 0462
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 05/01/2026“Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky.” —Thich Nhat Hanh Feelings are like a storm - you can choose to be outside getting wet or inside and dry observing the storm. You are not your feelings. 11889
Dylan Inserra-Peirson @dylanfromdallas.bsky.social · 02/01/2026“What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor, and more unashamed conversation.” —Glenn Close I remember when mental health was a thing we just didn’t talk about - it was secret, private, and shameful. The only way we can continue to reduce stigma by talking about it. 31134
