I can’t speak to how the people in your life will react, but one thing that inspired me to reach out for help was this: if a friend reached out to me to tell me they were going through it and needed support, I would feel honored that they trusted me, and I would actively want to help. When other people have reached out to me in the past, it has felt like a privilege to support them and it has only strengthened our friendship—so why wouldn’t it be the same in the other direction?

2/2 whatever you do I promise you it’ll be better to tell your loved ones or a close friend rather than waiting for the future

I know, dealing with mental health problems can be hard and scary!! But I promise you it is so worth it to seek out help. Seeking out health does not mean that you’re incapable of solving your own issues or that you’re not strong enough. - actually getting help shows that you’re brave enough to not go through it alone

You’re not alone!
