        new  year and you’re in a dark place. Having           There  are  communities  dedicated  to  mental
        Mental  health issues can cause you to see all         health and they help a lot of people, you don't

        the  bad    things  in  life  and  sometimes  you      need  to  be  alone.  I  didn't  realize  how  many
        don't feel  like you want to get out of bed or         people hide their sadness, it's scary how well
        eat    anything  or  you  just  ignore  all  your      we can hide something, especially if you always

        messages  to have some time by yourself.                 feel  like  a  burden.  Love  yourself  and  try  to
                                                               improve everyday. This year is all about keeping
                                                                positive, and I know there are so many bad
        When you feel like you're not in the mood to           things going on but we need to show these kids
        deal with the world that's fine, you don't have         how to be strong.
         to pretend to be okay if you're not but try to

        take care of yourself. If you're feeling way too
        down to stand up then go take a long bath              Be happy with who you are and what you still
        and relax for a little bit. I know a lot of people     can achieve. It doesn't matter how many times

        say  it's  mind  over  matter  and  that  you  can     you've failed in life, the past doesn't divine you.
        think yourself out of any situation, but that is       If  you  do  not  learn  from  your  mistakes  then
        just  not  true  especially  if  you  have  ptsd,      you're not growing as a person.

        deppresion and other mental health related             Sometimes it's not even a mistake, sometimes
        cases.                                                 you're just a quiter. I use to be a quitter, I never
                                                               finished anything I've ever started in my life.

                                                               I've  written  more  than  30  books  but  not
        I realized that when I treat myself good and           finished  1 story.  I'm  currently  writing a book
        give myself some slack then I did feel better.         that still has a long way to go.

        If you've been through something that you
        can't even talk about or just won't talk about.        It's  not  easy  being  a  writer,  having  so  many

        Then  watch  some  YouTube,  I've  watched
        some  videos  on  YouTube  of  people  going           stories  and  dreams  and  poems  and  just
        through the same kind of things I did, and not         everything in between. Writing is another type

          only  did  I  see  someone  successfully  living     of drug like drinking 10 redbuls and 10 joints!
        with all this I also got some amazing self care        Yessss  baby  now  I'm  satisfied.  Reading  is  a

        tips.                                                  great way to get lost in your mind and have a
                                                               laugh, I always try to make a few jokes in my
                                                               stories. I truly do believe laughter is a medicine

                                                               or  magic,  sorry  if  you  always  catch  me
                                                               laughing. That's just my reaction to everything.



                                                               If you are reading this then I hope you have a
