Folks generally don’t ask if their personality will change if they take medication for a physical health issue, even one by prescription. Yet we often hear people worry they will become different person if they take medication for a mental health issue. Our board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, Jessica Knapp, DNP, addresses this myth in the blog below.

Dr Knapp currently has same-week availability, is available in person or by telehealth, and takes many insurances. Give us a call at 734-944-3446 to schedule with her or one of our other board certified nurse practitioners.

When thinking self care don’t stress out. Do just one small thing that lifts your mood..

Winter can feel heavy — with less daylight, colder weather, and long to-do lists. That’s why this is all about gentle, realistic ways to care for yourself.

Self-care doesn’t have to be big or perfect. It might look like playing one song you love, sending a “thinking of you” text, clearing one small space, or making a warm drink and taking a pause.

Pick one thing from the list and let that be enough for today. 💙

If you’re struggling to figure out how to reduce the stress and overwhelm and experience what meaningful holidays can feel like, read on…

You get to define what a meaningful holiday looks like. Not the version full of “shoulds.” I should do more. I should enjoy this more. I should want this.⁠
⁠
If a “should” shows up, pause and ask: Where did this come from? My family, my fear, someone else’s voice?⁠
⁠
You don’t have to reject it either. Just set it on the shelf for a moment.⁠ Think of it like an adult version of Elf on the Shelf - not watching, not judging! Just placed somewhere you don’t have to carry it right now.⁠
⁠
Then translate it into a want. “I want this to feel lighter.” “I want to enjoy myself.” If the holidays feel heavy, overwhelming, or like too much - that’s not a personal failure. It’s a signal. And you’re allowed to listen to it.⁠
⁠
Skipping traditions, saying no, doing less, choosing ease - these aren’t signs you’re “ruining” anything. Often, they’re how we protect connection, regulation, and ourselves.
