“The only journey is the journey within.” – Rainer Maria Rilke
“Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean it isn’t so.” – Lemony Snicket, The Blank Book
“Mental health…is not a destination, but a process. It’s about how you drive, not where you’re going.” – Noam Shpancer, PhD
“Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.” – Fred Rogers
“If we start being honest about our pain, our anger, and our shortcomings instead of pretending they don’t exist, then maybe we’ll leave the world a better place than we found it.” – Russell Wilson
“Some of the most comforting words in the universe are ‘me too.’ That moment when you find out that your struggle is also someone else’s struggle, that you’re not alone, and that others have been down the same road.” – Unknown
“I fight for my health every day in ways most people don’t understand. I’m not lazy. I’m a warrior.”
“Don’t give in to stigma. A diagnosis does not determine who you are or what you can do!”
“Don’t let your struggle become your identity.”
“The strongest people are those who win battles we know nothing about.” –
“The problem with having problems is that ‘someone’ always has it worse.” Tiffany Madison, Black and White
“What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor, and more unashamed conversation.”
Glenn Close
“Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.”
Fred Rogers
“Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean it isn’t so.”
Lemony Snicket
“Sometimes the people around you won’t understand your journey. They don’t need to, it’s not for them.”
Joubert Botha
“One small crack does not mean that you are broken, it means that you were put to the test and you didn’t fall apart.”
Linda Poindexter
I cannot stand the words “Get over it”. All of us are under such pressure to put our problems in the past tense. Slow down. Don’t allow other to hurry your healing. It is a process, one that may take years, occasionally, even a lifetime – and that’s OK.”
Beau Taplin
“She is beautiful piece of broken pottery, put back together by her own hands. And a critical world judges her cracks while missing the beauty of how she made herself whole again.”
J.M. Storm
Some days I am more wolf than woman, and I am still learning how to stop apologizing for my wild.”
Nikita Gill
“You don’t have to be positive all the time. It’s perfectly okay to feel sad, angry, annoyed, frustrated, scared and anxious. Having feelings doesn’t make you a negative person. It makes you human.”
Lori Deschene
“Out of all the things I have lost, I miss my mind the most.”
Mark Twain
“Nobody can save you but yourself, and you’re worth saving. It’s a war not easily won, but if anything is worth winning then this is it.”
Charles Bukowski
“Sometimes self care is exercise and eating right. Sometimes it’s spending time with loved ones or taking a nap. And sometimes it’s watching an entire season of TV in one weekend while you lounge around in your pajamas. Whatever soothes your soul.”
Nanea Hoffman
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
