Ill kick it off

Quotes on mental illness

Hi Tony and All,

A counsellor recently said something like:

"people go to receive professional help for mental health issues because other people in their lives cause them hassles yet won't go and get help for themselves or acknowledge they themselves have any issues".

The point was to realise that I don't have to take everything on board that people say to me, as each person has their own issues. It is not for me to own what they say and I can change how I feel about their comments.

Cheers from Doolhof

Hi Dools

how true. Some of us adults for some reason have ended up idolising other adults and what they say.

Another quotes

”we are not in this world to live up to others expectations”

"Life is tough my darling, but so are you."

This applies to everyone on the forums, and anyone struggling mentally and physically, it applies to many things really, and to male, female, trans, anyone!

Quotes on mental illness

Meljlow — Sun, 29 Mar 2020 04:37:42 GMT

I wrote this after my world was turned upside down.
ANXIETY
Not so long ago I was a strong independent person who could take on any challenges put in my way and take on the world.
But sadly for now Ive been brought to my knees by one very strong emotion..
IT GOES BY THE NAME OF ANXIETY.
