💚 A Guide to Emotional Self-Care

Taking care of your emotions is just as important as taking care of your body. Emotional self-care helps you protect your peace, build confidence, and nurture healthier relationships.

✨ Here are four simple ways to start today:
1️⃣ Learn to say no – Protect your energy until you’re ready to say yes again.
2️⃣ Watch your “sorry” – You don’t have to apologize for existing. Use your words with intention.
3️⃣ Create boundaries – Boundaries aren’t walls; they’re gates that let in what supports your growth.
4️⃣ Feel your emotions – Healing begins when you stop judging your feelings and start listening to them.

You deserve the same care and compassion that you give to others. 🌿
Start prioritizing your emotional wellness — and if you need support, Primary Care Solutions is here to help.

💭 “Always desire to learn something useful.” — Sophocles

At Primary Care Solutions, we believe that learning something useful isn’t just about knowledge — it’s about growth, healing, and resilience.

In therapy, “learning something useful” might mean discovering a new way to manage stress, setting boundaries that protect your peace, or recognizing that self-care isn’t selfish — it’s necessary.

Every small insight you gain becomes a powerful tool for your well-being. 🌿
What’s one useful thing you’ve learned about yourself this week?

🌿 What Three Habits Will Improve Your Life?

Small, consistent habits can transform the way you think, feel, and live. Here are three therapist-approved habits to help you create a healthier, more peaceful version of yourself:

1️⃣ Check in with Your Mind Daily
Take five minutes each morning to pause and ask, “How am I feeling—really?”
Awareness is the first step toward emotional balance.

2️⃣ Set Boundaries Like They’re Self-Care (Because They Are!)
Saying no to what drains you means saying yes to your peace, recovery, and growth.

3️⃣ Schedule Stillness
Therapy teaches that healing happens in quiet moments. Whether it’s deep breathing, journaling, or a walk outside—give your nervous system time to rest.

✨ Growth doesn’t happen overnight, but every mindful choice adds up. Start with one habit today, and give yourself grace to grow.

🌍 World Mental Health Day | October 10

Today, we honor World Mental Health Day by focusing on a truth we see every day — mental health care must meet people where they are.

For BIPOC communities, accessing care can mean confronting barriers far beyond the therapist’s office — stigma, cultural misunderstanding, systemic inequities, and the trauma of witnessing or experiencing injustice.

At Primary Care Solutions of Ohio, we believe in care that heals through understanding, not judgment. Our clinicians are trained in trauma-informed, culturally responsive care, ensuring that every individual is seen, heard, and valued in their healing journey.

🧠 What Trauma-Informed Care Looks Like:

Acknowledging the lasting impact of trauma on mind and body

Creating safe, supportive environments that foster trust

Centering empathy, respect, and cultural awareness

Empowering clients to reclaim their voice and agency

Healing is possible when care feels like community. 💚

📞 If you or someone you know is seeking compassionate support, contact any of our Ohio offices today.

💚 National Depression Screening Day — Take a Moment for You

Depression doesn’t always look the same for everyone. Some days it’s sadness or exhaustion. Other days, it’s irritability, loss of motivation, or feeling disconnected from things that once brought you joy.

🧠 National Depression Screening Day is a reminder that your mental health deserves just as much care as your physical health. A simple check-in can be the first step toward healing.

🔎 Take a Free, Confidential Screening:
1 in 5 adults experiences a mental health condition each year.
to complete a quick self-assessment. It only takes a few minutes, and your results can help you understand whether you might benefit from talking to a mental health professional.

💬 Why It Matters:

1 in 5 adults experience a mental health condition each year.

Early screening helps you recognize symptoms before they become overwhelming.

Seeking help is not weakness—it’s self-awareness and courage.

🌿 How to Support Yourself or Others:

Schedule time to rest and recharge.

Reach out to a trusted friend or family member.

Contact a therapist or counselor if you need additional support.

At Primary Care Solutions, we’re here to help you take that first step. Because mental health is health—and your well-being matters every day. 💚

The Depression Test is for individuals who are feeling overwhelming sadness. The depression test is also available in Spanish.

💚 Mental Illness Awareness Week: You Are Not Alone

This week, we’re shining a light on Mental Illness Awareness Week — a time to replace silence with support and stigma with understanding.

Mental illness can look different for everyone. Some common signs include:

Noticeable changes in mood, sleep, or appetite

Withdrawal from social activities or loved ones

Increased fear, worry, or irritability

Difficulty focusing or completing daily tasks

🕊️ Coping Strategies:
Taking care of your mental health means building habits that restore calm and balance. Try:

Sticking to a daily routine

Practicing self-care through exercise, journaling, or creative outlets

Talking with a trusted friend, family member, or therapist

🤝 Reaching Out Matters:
If you or someone you love is struggling, don’t wait to reach out. Check in with a simple “How are you—really?” and offer a listening ear. Share mental health resources or help connect them to professional support.

You are not alone in this journey. 💚
