It is the last day of Mental Health Awareness Month and it’s time for our last letter to ourselves!

Last but not least is letter writer Sarah!

Dear Younger Sarah,

You are sweet, compassionate, creative, and have a laugh that lights up each room. Even though you are sometimes made to feel like your sensitivity is a weaknes, it is a beautiful gift. You care deeply about others and carry more empathy than most. Your talent with words will allow you to create beautiful songs and poetry and connect to your intuition. I know you can get overwhelmed and anxious because your emotions are so strong, but there is nothing wrong with who you are. Learning to manage these symptoms is still a work in progress, but you have come so far and have accomplished so much. I am so proud of you.

Love,
Older Sarah

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month our team is sharing letters written to ourselves!

Up next is letter writer Rebekah!

Dear Rebekah,

I know how hard things can get sometimes but remember how far you’ve come. It was not that long ago (6 years now) that you were hospitalized for your mental health and you saw no way out. Now you are a nurse helping other people in the same position as you. Remember that it is possible to get better, and that it is possible to continue to get better. Remember this even when things get hard. Hang in there. I am proud of you.

Its time to share another letter to ourselves In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month!

Up next is letter writer Bridget!

Dear Younger Bridget,

You are a sweet, sensitive soul, full of light and imagination. You spent some time not understanding why you felt so different from others, why your thoughts were so powerful. You will be diagnosed with OCD, and it’s going to consume your life for a while. Good news is, you will get all the help and support you need. Your journey will not be easy, but it will be rewarding when you reflect back on these hardships. The best part is that you will never lose the sweet, sensitive, imaginative part of yourself.

We’re back for another round of letter to ourselves In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month!

Next we have letter writer Chelsea!

Dear Chelsea,

I’m so sorry for everything that OCD has stolen from you; months of joy & peace and special moments with your child and husband. It’s hard to know that’s all gone, but what you have now is a strength you didn’t know you had. You have a deeper love and care for yourself and those around you. OCD may try to come and mess things up, but thanks to ERP, you know how to deal with it! You know how to move forward in freedom and trust in yourself! Keep going girl! You’ve got this! ❤️

We’re continuing with our letters to ourselves series In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month!

Up next is letter writer Julia!

Dear Younger Me,

I know things suck so bad right now, and it feels like there’s no way out. I know you’ve convinced yourself that you are hopeless and will never recover. That you’ve relegated yourself to endless days and nights of anxiety. Oh, how I wish I could convince you that you will be okay. Keep taking those baby steps, no matter how small, and remember a bad day doesn’t mean all your progress is gone. I won’t tell you that the journey won’t be hard or complicated or long or terrifying, but I need you to know that facing all that fear will lead to the greatest reward- a life you love. Keep going. One day at a time. ❤️

It’s time for another round of letters to ourselves written by our team In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month!

Next is another one of our letter writers, Chloe!

Dear Younger Me,

I know life can be so uncertain with many twists and turns, but know you are stronger than you think. You will face challenges you never thought you would be able to conquer, but know that with determination and perseverance, you will get through these times. Times will get hard but remember to keep hope that there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Life is messy, but you will eventually learn to embrace it! Most importantly, remember to cherish the present. I know how easy it is to get wrapped up in the future, but remember there is no time like now!

XOXO,
Future You
