What I stopped saying to my kids
Переглядів 1,8 тис.3 місяці тому
It hit me one day that i didn’t like a certain phrase I kept saying to my kids, so I made a small, but important adjustment. Let’s always prioritize mental health. We can empower our kids to know they can accomplish things independently, while still reminding them that needing help does not mean they’re inadequate or weak. Luka wrote in his chapter of our book how he shut down, pushed people aw...

Today is the day. This book is as personal and vulnerable as it gets. Thankful for my son’s input along the way, and for writing the last chapter. I really wanted readers to hear directly from him. Thank you to everyone who chooses to read it. My wish for this book is that it will bring hope and remove shame. #mentalhealth

😂😂😂😂
So true! Summer 2023-this was me!🤣🤣🤣🥵🥳🎉❤️
Ya know, this is one of those funny not funny things. This is why I don’t go to public gyms… the staring and objectifying with eyes!
wtf???
Kaj te briga kaj drugi misle. Pogotovo oni koji to nemaju. Jedno je kljukati sina sa lijekovima a drugio dati mu lijekove od kojih može normalno funkcionirati.
My daughter has ADHD & autistic ... she has focus issues in school & said the medication have helped her .... she's a straight student & honors math & English... so yes sometimes medications are need to assist
I'm not a doctor and this is just my opinion. I think it's a disservice to refer to it as "mental" illness. The mental parts of the illness are symptoms. There is a physical cause, the chemical imbalance. If we referred to it by it's cause, maybe people would be more understanding or at least less inclined to say..."snap out of it."
nope drugs have a negative impact on the body .Natural herbs are way better like St Johns wort for example
Tired of the ignorance and even more tired of the stigma! That said, I do think there is too much of a culture of medicating people and sending them on their way instead of giving them therapy, or better housing, or helping support them through whatever difficulties life has thrown. Medication can _help_ with that, but medication on its own is often what's offered. I have Complex PTSD, for context. I have been in therapy for 3 years (after finally finding the right therapist) and the improvements are amazing. I'm also part of my local mental health community where, with all our different diagnoses, we never judge - just support one another: medicated, unmedicated, coping, thriving, or suicidal. It's meant such a lot to me. You are a beautiful human being doing what you were put on this earth to do - please don't take these ridiculous armchair experts seriously. Sending lots of love from across the Pond
Thank you for saying what needs to be said. You're an amazing woman!
I have struggled with major depressive disorder for over 15 years. I have lost so much respect for several, now formerly close, family members and friends. It is incredibly discouraging and behind painful. My 85 year old mother, has understood and advocated for people with mental illness since the early 1970s and was the primary person who convinced me to seek professional help when back when I was floundering just to survive. Humans can really suck sometimes….don’t be that person.
Problem is, my generation grew up with parents who had very old fashioned views of mental health and saw it as being committed to a mental hospital. They also have this "get over it" attitude. That seems to be a problem even today, people just say "get over it" and regard people with mental health issues as "weak".
Most of the people who are dismissive of my MH issues are “health nuts” born in the 80s and 90s who believe I can exercise and take vitamins to cure MDD 🤔.
Yes. I've been tired of the ignorance for years. Being called weak, lazy, stupid. Like, the brain is the only organ that doesn't get to be treated like an organ. A heart can have a defect or a disease, and this is treated with care and compassion. When it's the brain, it's considered a moral failing. Even, in some cases, by the professionals who are trained to treat it! It's so idiotic. Thank you for speaking out against mental health stigma.
I'm so glad you said this. For some people, it's really necessary and makes a big difference. Take the meds if you need them. Times have changed, demands are different, and we don't have a lot of the societal norms that hold us together.
I heard a story from a Christian comedian. Someone told her to “stop taking antidepressants. God would save her.” She replied “stop wearing your glasses. God will save you.” Everyone cheered.
Amen
Wow. People will just sit at their computers and say things - all the things - with their whole chests and never once stop to think of who they might be hurting.
Do whatever works for you. No judgement
i have struggled since i was a teen. mental health issues have clearly never touched her family. ur doing great! 💓
We still get sh*t from EVERYONE, even family when we pulled our son out of 6th grade bc of intense bullying that his school did nothing about... Plus he was dealing with undiagnosed (at the time) ADHD , losing everything I'm a house fire including our fur baby .... It was soooo bad he couldn't sleep unless I said I'd think about keeping him home, puking every morning.... So we pulled him out, got in cyber school, started counseling and medication.... BEST DECISION we ever made.... 5 years later, he is soooo much happier, still sees his counselor and we found medications that work.... His mental well being, health and happiness means more to me than anything!!! I will not lose my child bc of others opinions and stigmas!!!!!
Why is it that bullies always get away with it?! Well done, you. I had to homeschool my middle child because she was so unhappy at school. She wasn't much happier at home, but we made it through.
Wow!!! You always get me right in the gut. Crying as usual. Thank you.
We need to end the stigma of mental health.
Thank you for putting this out into the world ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤

How on earth did you get a NYNEX North Shore telephone directory? I worked for NYNEX in the 90s (on the North Shore!) on their online yellow pages product.
No Body: They care how they smell for their boyfriends/girlfriends, but not how they smell for us. Me: They want certain things from their boyfriends/girlfriends that would be illegal for us to give.

THE DEDICATION IS AMAZING
I really appreciate 🙏 Thank you very much for your appreciation and support. You must've really observed a teacher and how they work. Once again thank you for noticing us❤❤
I am going through this with my 20yr old son. He is struggling so bad with his depression. I don’t know what other diagnosis he may have but whatever it is really taking a toll on him and the family. I need help for my boy. I’m afraid to lose my baby 😢
Kristina, it is so difficult to cope with our childrens pain. I wish you and your family strength and a bright future 🙏🏻❤️
Is no one paying attention to this coffee life hack she just dropped??

You look like Sandra Bullock for sure !

90% of the arguments that I had with my brother when we where kids, the reason why the arguments that we had occurred in the first because he was determined to argue. He pretended to be mad about something, because he enjoyed bitching.
As a parent, you have no right to get angry at or punish your kids for arguing. You caused the sibling rivalry by having more than one kid.
