Awareness is crucial! please don't deter ppl from raising awareness. ppl suffer in silence so someone u know may actually be suffering. We ALL need to be spreading awareness, encouraging talking openly & freely without judgement! Most of the population will have dealt with or had some sort of experience of mental illness, mental disorder, poor mental health/wellbeing, sadness, grief.... we need to all be raising awareness & encouraging people to talk. Its allowing fu***ng stupid, British societal (unhealthy) norms of 'suffering in silence' 'stiff upper lips' shaming talking openly about our emotions/thoughts that is such a huge risk. We have a problem in this country & in this town so we need to talk, share, support, encourage healthy/non-judgemental healthy expression of emotions, keeping an open dialogue. If just 1 person feels empowered/support/not judged enough to be able to seek support/reach out/talk/cry/ask for help, that could save a life! Please dont discourage this! 💚
