oh, this. this. this.

this world mental health day lands different and more intensely than any other has in my lifetime. we are the ones that now have “leaders” using fear, lies, cruelty, brute force and scapegoating as political strategy.

and it is affecting all of us.

when people are told to distrust or turn in neighbors, friends, family, when families live in terror of raids or brace themselves when picking up their kids from school, when grocery/goods prices skyrocket, when the cost of health insurance doubles, when you lose your job or it’s consistently threatened, when rights and truth and who we are - are constantly attacked.

when these so-called “leaders” lie daily, break the law, shred the constitution, when this ripples out and also impacts the world - our collective nervous system absorbs that violence. and it is all violence.

so if you feel exhausted, anxious, sad, afraid, angry, or numb, that is not a personal failing. it’s a trauma response to living under constant psychological warfare. it’s your nervous system responding exactly as it should be to danger, it’s the definition of survival mode.

world mental health day isn’t just about self-care. it’s about collective care. it’s about refusing to accept policies or rhetoric that dehumanize, divide, and destabilize communities - destabilize us.

it’s about protecting hope, truth, and empathy in a time that profits from our despair and fear and our being controlled.

rest and joy are resistance. community is medicine. truth-telling is caring. be kind to you. you are not alone. you are loved. please never forget.

today, maybe just do the next right thing to honor you, whatever that is and looks like for you.
