Mental Health Stories: Part 1

 Hi everyone! Today's post is very special because I've gathered the stories of people from all walks of life. These people are from all over the world, and it goes to show that mental illness does not discriminate. Thank you for all the incredible people who shared. Stay tuned for the next part of this series! Be kind to people, you don't know what they're going through. ♡ Saige Taryn Barnes-Roberts I think, as a society, we are confused about what mental health is and especially the difference between good mental health and bad mental health. Someone can have a good day and still have bad mental health, just like someone who has good mental health can have a bad day. Mental health also has a lot to do with how someone is affected or reacts to these good or bad days. I have struggled with my mental health for many years. I have multiple mental illnesses, recently I have been really struggling with anorexia and unstable moods. I spent last summer in the hospital for my

 Happy New Year! Long time no see! It’s been a good while since I posted. One of my resolutions is to start posting more regularly, especially since we’re coming up on the ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY of this blog!! It’s absolutely insane how much we’ve accomplished in the past year, thank you all so much for supporting me in this. Today, we’re starting the new year off on an important note. Today’s topic is Self-Harm and Self-Injury. I’ve been hearing lots of misconceptions about this topic recently and wanted to do my part and educate those who may be misguided. As always, if you need ANY help whatsoever, please visit my CRISIS page on my blog for helplines that are available and accessible for you. Here’s to 2023! May this year be something incredible! Be kind to people, you don’t know what they’re going through. ♡Saige

Eating Disorder Awareness Week 2022

Image
 February 1st - 7th was Eating Disorder Awareness Week. As a person who has struggled with an eating disorder myself, I truly feel for anyone who has to experience it. There's a stereotype that eating disorders only fit one person - teenaged, skinny, white girls - and while there are people who fit that stereotype, the majority of sufferers don't. There are many different eating disorders, not just anorexia. People can be any shape or size; they are called EATING disorders NOT weight disorders. People of all genders can struggle, and any age as well. Some people are hospitalized, some people aren't. Not everyone is tube fed, some people don't even have a diagnosis. Regardless of these factors, every. single. eating. disorder. is. valid. When I was in my first week of inpatient treatment, there was an older woman there. Let's call her Rose. Rose was so kind to me, as she called herself the "Recovery Grandma". She was only there for a week into my stay, but
