May is Mental Health Awareness Month
This month provides an opportunity for all people to check in with their current state of mental health and reflect on how they are doing and feeling mentally. Take a moment to be mindful of your stress and emotions and check in with the things and people that matter to you the most.
For people with mental illnesses, this is an important practice to regularly follow. Check in with your healthcare professionals or counselors if you notice that you need help or at least try to talk to one friend about what you are going through. You don't have to do anything alone, even though you might think you do.
Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. If you need to talk to someone, call or text 988 to chat with a trained counselor.
