Hello Herd, Today is World Mental Health Day and we want to take a moment to remember and support those who may be engaging in silent battles.
Every year 1 adult in 4, along with 1 child in 10, will have a mental health issue. Recent studies show that women suffer higher rates of mental disorders than men. These conditions can profoundly affect literally MILLIONS of lives, affecting the capability of these individuals to make it through the day, to sustain relationships, and to maintain work. And, most struggle alone because of the stigma surrounding mental illness.
We need to eliminate the stigma about mental illness and talking about it is a great way to start. Since people can easily relate to quotes, we thought that sharing some mental health quotes would be a good way to start raising awareness or help start some conversations.
Here are 5 quotes that really resonated with us. Fell free to save any of the images below so you can look at them as a reminder on particularly challenging days or share them with a friend that may need the support.
