🏵 World Mental Health Day 🏵
Ironically on this day (yesterday) my mental health was not quite tip top.
I work part time in a primary school with early years SEN children, and as they all fidgeted on the carpet in their yellow clothes they were asked - what makes them happy?
"Dogs, cuddles with nanny, cartoons, more dogs, hamsters - they chimed."
I asked myself the same thing; it sounded more like- "financial stability, community, work that feels inspirational and good food (of course)"
Working in these environments has taught me so much about education, childhood development and neurodiversity but it has also made me the most burnt out I have ever been. Ever. And it is totally unsustainable towards maintaining good mental health. So much so that I cried on the way home yesterday realising it. 🥲
Hence, to celebrate 🏵 World Mental Health Day 🏵 I am making an active choice to move away from it.
Every day is Mental Health Day, and every day we can make a choice to either stick at that thing that is making us sick or actively and consciously remove it.
Sometimes it is not about what makes us happy- it's also the question of what makes us unhappy - and what are we going to do about it?
