World Mental Health Day

Today I received my new medicine for my hidden illness. I decided I’ll be brave and do what the doctor ordered- take my medicine as prescribed. I’m sure you’re thinking that sounds simple and pretty straight forward. You may have followed those very instructions, for whatever aches and pains or illness you have suffered from and are probably thinking what’s the big deal? (Swallow a pill at regular intervals and you’re all sorted.) Today’s the day my illness goes visible and if I’m honest I’m a little apprehensive about it. On the outside I haven’t got physical scars for all to see. I do however have a new piece of kit -a cylinder with a clear bit of tubing to rest along my face. Today is World Mental Health Day and I’m fighting back hoping and praying that each of us finds the strength to fight back when those anxieties creep in. Be strong and face up to those difficulties and seek support when things get tough by doing so I’m sure you’ll join me in breathing easier. 💕
