I woke up this morning a bit off-kilter with my emotions all over the place.
It’s been stressful at work of late, and I’ve been processing a lot from last year and simply trying to move through everything without completely breaking down.
I haven’t been too successful, but that’s only because I’m stubborn, and I’ve had to be shown I need to take more time away from work.
So feeling all that I’m feeling and knowing I wouldn’t be able to provide my job with 100% of me today, I am taking an FMLA day, and I intend to rest my mind, body, and soul.
Coincidentally, I learned it is World Mental Health Day today. God is always trying to tell us something.
World Mental Health Day (10 Oct) is a day to talk about mental health and show everyone that mental health matters. It’s also a day to let people know that it’s okay to ask for help, no matter what you’re going through.
—Mental Health Foundation
As the theme of World Mental Health Day highlights, ‘mental health is a universal human right’. That’s why at Mental Health Foundation, we’re dedicated to addressing the inequalities in mental health and working towards good mental health for all, not just for some.
If you need this day, please take it. Do not be like me and wait until you’re nearly bursting at the seams from built-up pain and anguish.
Be good to you today.
Peace and blessings.
