Hey everyone,
Mental Health Awareness Day is coming up in a few weeks (10th October) and we'd love to know what you do to look after your wellbeing?
Perhaps something you do could help inspire someone to try something new to look after themselves.
Comment below what you do for wellness and self-care
For me, I love to spend time outside whenever I can or taking time to do something creative like drawing or colouring

Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

For self-care on days where my mental health is rough, I like to hide in my room, put some music or a podcast on through my headphones, and play some easy video games and get lost.
Sometimes it is read a book, watch a TV show, listen to music or even going for a walk (weather dependent).
Just spending a bit of time away from distractions and stressors to focus on something simple works wonders
