My Philosophy
Why I'm Doing What I'm Doing
As many know, living with a mental illness is not easy and it is especially
lonely due to the stigma surrounding it. In my early teens I struggled a lot
with my mental health and looking back at my experiences the only part that
I wish had been different was having someone that I could talk to
about what I was going through.
I created this website because I want to help others who feel the
same way I did, to me having someone to talk to would have made
dealing with my mental health struggles less lonely. I also would like
to raise awareness about the use of support groups that assist with mental
health. It is a common universal thought that the only way to
support someone dealing with a mental illness is by seeking
professional help. This may be true in some aspects; however, the
use of support groups and discussion circles can help those who
are not ready to seek out professional help by allowing them to
express their feelings and to know that they are not alone in
their battles.
With that being said, welcome to my circle, feel free to stay a while ♥
