hello beautiful people! :)
since it’s mental health awareness month, i wanted to come on here and let everyone know that you are seen.
mental health is something that’s very easily overlooked and often not cared about, sadly. it’s a huge struggle and makes life a lot harder for so many people. as someone who’s struggled with mental health issues like anxiety & depression from a very young age, i know how it feels and i want people to know that i understand them and i am always here to talk if anyone ever needs it.
its important to believe in yourself when no one around you does, and that can be hard. it can take a while to learn how to live with these struggles, sometimes it’s nearly impossible, but there’s always something to hold on to. even if it’s the tiniest bit of a happy memory, hope, or the love you receive from the people around you.
if you got up today, you can be proud of yourself. you’re here, and i am proud of you for that.
no matter how hard it gets, remember that one day you can look back on yourself and on those moments where you struggled the most, and be proud of yourself for getting out of that. the strongest thing you can do is ask for help, never hesitate. i am here and i see you, i understand you.
you are loved, you are amazing.
big hugs, and lots of love, malia 𖦹✮⋆˙
