Struggling With ____
Fighting the Stigmas
I named this page "Struggling With Blank" because although i'm going to explain my struggles with my mental health. You might be struggling with something different. Your struggles are yours. They are seen, they are heard. They should not be stigmatized.
Hi. I struggle with Anxiety, Depression, and my body image. I wake up some days perfectly "okay", other days not so much. From my experience the worst thing is not knowing how to explain how my brain makes me feel.
I cant help when I feel anxious nor can I really just "let it go", I understand I should get out of bed and be productive but somehow i cant find the urge to get up. I realize my body is not too small or too big ( What is that even mean anyways?), but for some reason somedays I wake up and no outfit makes me feel pretty analyzing every inch of my skin too much, I think I lost weight or gained weight which causes me to be anxious even though I haven't.
I have grown so much in my mealth health. I struggle day in and day out with it. Some days completely worse than others. The Young Girl Eight years ago though would be looking at Young Adult me so proud. Eight Years ago I self harmed, I did not eat as much as I should of. I had no self worth, I did not think about being here today. Writing for atleast maybe the one person who is reading this. (Hi mom).
To the People who are struggling. I get it. Your struggles are vaild and everyone's is different. I can tell you though. If you woke up this morning, it was for a reason. It is up to you to find out that reason. Ask for help. Grow. Live. Keep going. For the People who have someone who is struggling. Don't make their feelings feel invaild. Be there for them. Break the stigma.
