Mental Health Pep Talk # 5: Seek Help

 

“No one understand me.”

“I don’t need others.”

“ I don’t care!”

Words like that are good for the ego. To the stubborn mindset.

But not helping us, really.

God did not create a singular person on earth and let him/her to be alone.

Reach out. It may be difficult at first, but you will soon realize that the difficulty is just on your mind. 

And when you are at it… you will realize how liberating it is to let another help carry your burden.  

Thank you Almighty God, I am alive!!!

Mental Health Pep Talk # 4: Guilt-free Happiness

 I have to indulge myself in things that makes me happy.

Or eat food that makes me feel fulfilled. 

I remember the times I am happy.

I imagine places that makes me feel at peace, content and light.

I talk, remember or be with people who make me feel good.

I do what I need to do for that lasting sense of fulfillment.

Just as long as I won’t be answerable to God and country. 

Thank you Almighty God, I am alive!!!

Mental Health Pep Talk # 3: Care for Others

 

My life is meaningful.

No matter what situation I am in, my life has meaning.

My life would be much easier, if I care for others. 

Sometimes, a shared look which says, I understand, I feel you, I know… 

are simple ways I can connect to others.

I need to act on my hope to make others feel good. 

I don’t need to please people. But I have to show respect. 

And AVOID those who make me feel less of myself.

I am God’s child. So are others.

Thank you Almighty God, I am alive!!!

Mental Health Pep Talk # 2: Befriend Oneself

 

Life is a give and take. 

You lose some, you win some. 

I can’t go anywhere I want, anytime I want to. And its pretty irritating. 

Yet, I have my quality “me” time now. 

If there is no one to hug, I can hug my pillow and think of good things. 

I can write that poem, go movie binge-watching, or go raiding the kitchen  

I can keep feeling good. The warmth of my smile spreading to uplift the mood of those near me. 

This is me.  The one and only me. No else in this world is like me.

I have problems because I am normal. 

Thank you Almighty God, I am alive!!!

Mental Health Pep Talk # 1: Try Not to Over Think

 This is the 21st Century, yet many questions are still unanswered. 

Questions seek Answers.

Answers lead to Questions.

And the cycle goes on. The 22nd Century will come and go, and many questions will still be unanswered.

Give me a break.  

I would like to enjoy my music. I would like to enjoy the blue skies, the comforting breeze.

I would like to enjoy the rain, the warmth of knowing new plants will grow. 

I hope of better people, of better situations.

For the meantime, I will take that nap I long for. I will walk,  swim,  dance, eat, hug… SMILE:)

Thank you Almighty God, I am alive!!!
