“Stories have this quiet way of holding you when nothing else can. Writing has always been the one place I didn’t need to shrink myself. In high school during quarantine, I wrote a letter to no one in particular. It started like a diary entry but morphed into a narrative tracing why I felt I had to perform being okay…” Read the rest of the story.
How do you pick up on stress in your relationships — and how do you talk about stress or heightened emotions with someone you care about? Noticing and then responding to high levels of stress in someone else is a skill you can develop over time. This exercise will help you look at ways to talk about stress and emotional well-being with others
Noticing the signs of high stress levels in yourself and in your relationships is an important skill. When life gets busy, you may find yourself missing common stress and well-being clues. Stressors in life are normal, but too much stress over long periods of time can impact your mental and physical health. Here are stress clues to look for and action steps you can take.
How do you talk to yourself when the going gets tough? What you say to yourself can be among the most important words you can hear. Why? Because the words you choose and the feelings behind them carry weight that can boost your sense of well-being when you need it most. This exercise will help you explore your values and create affirmations you can use every day.
Like packing a suitcase for a trip, you can “pack” your brain with the essentials you need to function each day. You may learn something new or experience a moment that takes significant brainpower to process. Writing or journaling can be a powerful way to process your thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations in ways that benefit your mental health and well-being. Ready to try?
Identifying your core values can help you align your decisions with the most central parts of yourself and what you believe. Exploring and clarifying your values can boost your mental health and well-being — and can be a useful tool for guiding your relationship choices. Try this exercise to explore and define your values.
Life can be stressful. If we don’t process them, feelings like sadness and worry can take a toll on our mental health. The My Happy Place journal is a new tool to help parents, caregivers, and students reflect on their identity, culture, and self care — all in support of mental health and well-being. Get started!
As parents or caregivers of a high school or college student, it’s not uncommon to see your student experience stress — especially in today’s increasingly complex environment. As a semester unfolds and workload grows, stress and well-being challenges can increase too. Taking time to support yourself and your student can make all the difference.
Realizing your own abilities is crucial and understanding your value is key. Tally your skills, talents, and abilities to function in various roles as student, worker, and in relationships. Seek to be productive in those roles, setting goals you wish to accomplish and working towards them. Be willing to look ahead and develop a vision of what you want to see and what you want to be.

History is real. Attempts to erase the past are a distortion of reality, which is the opposite of mental health. We cannot allow ourselves to be gaslit about Black history by people who wish to sweep the painful past under the rug. We must dissect and analyze the past in order to understand it better and not revisit previous mistakes. If we don’t remember and heed our history, we will be doomed to repeat it.

“For me anxiety began to be a major issue in middle school. I didn’t know what anxiety was but I remember feeling overwhelmed in crowded areas… Then I got help. I started to implement self-care routines to help alleviate my anxiety. I learned the power of practicing gratitude, the power of self-talk and to be conscious of my diet…”
“We think controlling our emotions is keeping it in…but actually that’s the toxic thing for us to do. It’s better to let it out. Remember what you talk about you control, but what you can’t talk about controls you.”
“I learned anger is okay. Sadness is okay. That it’s okay not to be okay. You don’t have to feel good all the time. I learned all this through therapy. It was huge.”
“After years of lying about who I was and not dealing with my issues and 22 suicide attempts, I finally got help and realized that you can’t deal with yesterday’s pain and bring it into today. I have to realize I only can deal with today.”
“Maybe it’s being a man, more specifically a black man, I thought I was supposed to just struggle through on my own but trust me that’s not the way. Seeking help is the most powerful thing a man can do.”
“If you’re struggling with something that is mental health-related, don’t struggle alone. Reach out to somebody. Find professional help. You may end up being a happy, smiling person who doesn’t have to fake it.”...
“I dealt with bouts of depression for years. I still do today, but thankfully it’s under control because I found ways to grapple with it. I started by seeking a higher power, meditating, feeding my body and mind, and getting to that place of mind-body-soul, which I think is so critical to mental health.”...
“I was 15 or 16 when I started to struggle with depression. But because my family didn’t talk about it at that time, I didn’t even know that’s what it was… If mental health is something you struggle with, share your story. Tell your story to a friend or to a family member. You never know who you might be inspiring, and it may just make someone feel like they’re a little bit less alone.”
“Know that you are important. We are not machines, we are people and we have feelings, so always focus on you. Focus on your mental health, focus on your self care and everything else can wait.”...
