It’s okay to not be okay.

Another (not-so) hot take from your friends at Mental Health America. 💛

Remember, healing together is easier than struggling alone. It’s brave to ask for support when you’re having a hard time.

If you’re struggling or in crisis, help is available. Call or text 988 or chat online at 988lifeline.org. You can also reach Crisis Text Line by texting HELLO to 741741.

If you just need someone to talk to, try calling a warmline. Warmlines are staffed by trained peers who understand what it’s like to need mental health support. You can find a warmline near you at mhanational.org/warmlines.

Don’t compare your journey to anyone else’s. You’re allowed to go at your own pace.

Rest is deserved, not earned. Take a break before your body takes it for you. 💛

Our Back-to-School hub will help you find practical guidance for starting mental health conversations at home and in the classroom, navigating transitions, responding when a student needs support, and caring for your own mental health during a demanding school year.

You might still feel deeply hurt by something someone said or did, and they may think that an apology they gave you was enough to heal the wound. Or maybe you decided removing someone from your life was the best thing for your mental health, and they think you’re being “dramatic,” and you should have forgiven them by now.

Multiple things can be true at the same time. Though we might try, we can’t actually control how other people perceive us. When you start to feel more secure in yourself, it gets easier to hold that truth.
