Gentle reminder that mental health doesn’t take a day off. Healing is often not a linear process. You can have good mental health days and you can have bad mental health days along the way. Be kind and patient with yourself. You are not alone. 💙

While stress isn't a mental health condition, the two are closely related – stress can result in poor mental health, and poor mental health can result in stress. In #StressAwarenessMonth, here are a few things that may help ease some stress 💙

Sometimes we worry about the mental health of friends and loved ones, but we don’t want to tell them we’re worried. Thanks to Murphys Sketches for the beautiful illustration showing there are lots of ways to begin that conversation. And what better time to start than today, #TimeToTalkDay
An illustration. At the top it says "Time to talk. Ways to ask 'Are you okay?' (without asking 'are you okay?')" Beneath are the words and illustrations. "Do you fancy a brew?" – two coffee cups. "Shall we go for a walk?" – a drawing of the sun. "Let's have a good natter." – a phone. "I'm in no rush." – an alarm clock. "Can I help you with anything?" – a washing line with baby clothes. "I was just thinking about you!" – bluey-white clouds. At the bottom it is tagged Murphys Sketches

We’ve seen so much progress over the past few decades. But LGBTQIA+ people are still more likely to face discrimination, abuse and stigma, and that can lead to mental health problems like anxiety, PTSD, and eating disorders.

Sometimes when friends and family tell you they’re doing alright, we might have to read between the lines to find out how they’re really feeling. Thanks so much to glimpseofarainbow for their fantastic illustration.
A handwritten note on an orange background reads "How are you?" followed by multiple responses, with some phrases crossed out. The responses range from expressing deep struggles and grief to more socially acceptable answers like "I'm alright!" and "I appreciate you checking in :)". The text conveys the difficulty of being honest about emotions while grieving. The Instagram handle "@glimpseofarainbow" is written at the bottom.
