What we got up to today 🫶🏼

On Monday’s my lovely lady and I attend a card making lesson at her retirement village.

There are about 12 ladies and each one takes turns in teaching a card.

The ladies absolutely love doing them and there are always so many different interpretations.

Everyone talks about mental health until they meet someone whose depression is no longer “easy” to be around.

People love sharing quotes about checking on others but often disappear when someone actually needs consistent support.

Real depression is not always motivational speeches and recovery posts.

Sometimes it is:

😢Canceling plans because getting out of bed feels impossible
😢Ignoring calls because your mind is exhausted
😢Smiling in public and breaking down in private
😢Losing interest in everything you once loved
😢Feeling emotionally numb around people you care about
😢Wanting support, but feeling guilty for needing it

The sad reality is that many people only love the healed, happy, productive and entertaining version of others.

The moment your pain becomes “too much” the distancing begins.

Suddenly you are called

“Negative”
“Too sensitive”
“Too draining”
“A burden”

People say “reach out” but become uncomfortable when you actually do.

We need to stop romanticizing mental health awareness while avoiding the reality of emotional suffering.

Because healing is not always pretty.

Struggling people are not always easy to understand.

Sometimes the strongest form of support is simply staying, listening and not abandoning someone when they are at their lowest.

The silence people receive during their darkest moments changes them forever.

Sometimes, the biggest heartbreak is discovering who only loved the version of you that was easy to handle.

Let’s break the stigma and make mental wellbeing a shared priority.

*Your feelings are valid
*Your story matters
*Support is always within reach.

No one should struggle in silence.
