A few weeks ago, I put a quote out on The CP Diary which read:

"I'm so tired of waiting, aren't you, for the world to become good and beautiful and kind." - Langston Hughes

Becoming good and beautiful and kind makes the world a kinder place, a better place, a place in which we can support and deal with our experiences, deal with our mental health.

The stats on The CP Diary make for sombre reading. Mental health is largely being ignored and according to mental health charities and the WHO, it is a cause for concern.

The latest UN projections on the World's population

"The latest UN projections suggest that the world’s population could grow to around 8.5 billion in 2030 and 9.7 billion in 2050, before reaching a peak of around 10.4 billion people during the 2080s. The population is expected to remain at that level until 2100." (Source: news.un.org)

13 years of writing

In 13 years of writing for the blog, my stats are making for sombre reading. The world has seen a lot of changes and as a consequence, we've all been through a lot of mental health changes. The CP Diary will always be here to support your mental health, to support YOU on your Mental Health Journey.

Mental Health Matters

Every Mind Matters, Your Emotions Matter, Your Mental Health Matters, but first we have to recognise that we need to deal with mental health, Be proactive on our mental health. It was clear to me from a young age that I needed to step up, to deal with my emotions, deal with my mental health.

It is important to look after our wellbeing. Staying well is important if we are to continue to enjoy our lives. Take yourself down ‘memory lane’ talk about and deal with your experiences. Deal with your emotions. If you're not being proactive, please think about starting.

Talk about the memories, so you can place them and take away the guilt, if it's guilt you feel. Just imagine how much lighter and better you’ll feel once you’re through the other end. I hope you will reconsider.
