Opening Up About My Mental Health #MyMessageToYou
I think it’s really important to be open and honest about our feelings and emotions... Not that it’s always easy. Now, if you’d have asked me 4 years ago to tell you how I’m really feeling… To be perfectly honest with you, I probably would have lied and said something like, “I’m awesome thanks mate, how’re you?” when, deep down, I actually wanted to scream, “I FEEL ANXIOUS ALL OF THE TIME AND I REALLY WISH I WAS HOME ON MY OWN RIGHT NOW…”
When I first opened up about my childhood, my feelings and what was really going on with me; my life changed completely. If you’ve watched a few of My Body Confidence Journey videos (#HappiMeBodyConfidenceProject) then you’ll probably know what I’m talking about. I didn’t feel alone anymore, which is how I had felt since I was 8 or 9 years old. I have the most amazing family, something I am grateful for every single day, but sometimes it doesn’t matter whether you’ve got your family around you, or your sat in the crowd of thousands, you can still feel totally alone. Whether you are struggling with your confidence, a trauma, your identity, a friendship, your sexuality… Or even if you don’t even know why you’re feeling this way but you know you don’t feel “good”, then please find a way to talk to someone.
