Posting in Yellow for World Mental Health Day

The #helloyellow campaign by YoungMindsUK
 is to show those who suffer with mental illness that they're not alone. 

I've been struggling with what I want to post first on this blog, and I thought that what I posted on Instagram for World Mental Health Day was fitting: 

"Today is #worldmentalhealthday, so I'm posting a lovely yellow flower from my backyard. I spent the day in bed; the new medicine I'm taking makes me nauseous and groggy. I've struggled with mental health issues for the past three years, and right now, I'm at home, taking one step at a time, one day at a time, because that's all I can do. 

There's still pressure on those who struggle with mental illnesses to keep silent, which makes all the more important for our stories to be shared. 

And, most of all, be kind to everyone. It may be more appreciated than you know."

Welcome, officially, to the blog. :)
