Ugly words should not define me
My journey is to take myself to where I deserve to be. No shaking
Anger is punishment we inflict on ourselves for someone else's wrong behaviour or action
Release the fear
Yes; you are strong enough to keep trying
Yes; you can
Stigma is a deterrent to our help-seeking behaviour

In many ways, mental health is just like physical health: everybody has it and we need to take care of it.
Good mental health means being generally able to think, feel and react in the ways that you need and want to live your life. But if you go through a period of poor mental health you might find the ways you’re frequently thinking, feeling or reacting become difficult, or even impossible, to cope with. This can feel just as bad as a physical illness, or even worse.
Mental health problems affect around one in four people in any given year. They range from common problems, such as depression and anxiety, to rarer problems such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
