🧠💚 Hello October, Hello Fresh Starts! 💚🧠
As we step into a new month, let’s pause and check in with ourselves: How’s your heart? How’s your mind?

October is Mental Health Awareness Month in many areas, and it serves as a reminder that our mental well-being is not an afterthought — it’s the foundation of everything we do.

✨ This month, let’s:

Prioritize rest without guilt.
Speak kindly to ourselves.
Normalize asking for help.
Support others in their healing journeys.
🌱 Remember: Healing takes time. Growth is not always loud. And strength doesn’t mean pretending you’re okay — it means choosing to care for yourself even when it’s hard.
💡 Wishing you a month filled with peace of mind, gentle resilience, and renewed hope.

👩🏽‍⚕️: As a clinical psychologist, one of my greatest joys is turning my pain into purpose.

I was once a Facebook content moderator and training Artificial Intelligence systems, exposed daily to traumatic content. Today, I stand here not just with my lived experience but sharing my research paper on the mental health of data workers in Italy.

And yes, I’m also presenting a mental health care intervention proposal with great professors across the world, my fellow Ph.D students/candidates from numerous universities across the globe because our healing deserves structure, care, and justice. 🧠✨

From trauma to transformation… this is what solidarity looks like. 💪🏾🌍

Love Malgwi

Today, we pause to remember, to raise and to break the silence around su***de.
Mental health struggles are real, and behind every statistic is a life, a family, and a community forever changed.

This year’s reminder: You are not alone.
Reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Checking in on others — even with a simple “How are you, really?” — can make all the difference.

As someone deeply engaged in mental health and workers’ well-being, I know how heavy trauma, burnout, and isolation can weigh on people, especially in hidden forms of labor. But healing and hope are possible.

To everyone carrying silent battles: your life matters. You matter.
If you are struggling, please reach out to someone you trust — or a mental health professional in your community.

Let us stand together to prevent su***de, fight stigma, and build systems of care where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.

Happy New Month from Digital Rights and Mental Health Initiative!
As we step into September, we recognize two critical observances:
✅ Su***de Prevention and Awareness Month
✅ Women’s Health Week
Your mental health is as important as your physical health. This month, let’s break the stigma, prioritize self-care, and support one another.
If you or someone you know is struggling, reach out, speak up, and seek help. You are not alone, and together we can create a world where mental well-being is a priority for all.

Remember:
💜 You matter.
💜 Your issues in life.
💜 Your voice matters.
Digital Rights and Mental Health Initiative wishes you a happy, hopeful, and healthy new month!

"It's time we truly understood the reality behind content moderation", a cause championed by Kauna Malgwi. A leader in the African Content Moderator Union and a psychologist, Kauna advocates for workers' rights in Kenya and Nigeria.

She speaks about the mental health impact on moderators, reminding us that their work is far more than a typical job. It's a daily encounter with the internet's most disturbing content, a heavy burden they carry to keep our online spaces safer.

Lean about Kauna's journey at the intersection of mental health, AI, and ethics.

Take this month to reclaim your peace without apology.
Unfollow what drains you.
Unlearn what shames you.
Undo the pressure to be "strong" all the time.

Your softness is not weakness, it's wisdom.
Your healing is not selfish, it's sacred.

Protect your boundaries. Prioritize your rest. Choose people who choose your peace.

And remember: “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” — Proverbs 4:23 (NIV)
