@lecrae; The first step for me to change was acknowledgement. I had to acknowledge that I had some serious problems. Acknowledgement is painful but denial is deadly.

Don't be afraid of rejection, it says absolutely nothing about your worth. #NAKUCHEKI

@IamKababu It will help. It starts with the small steps towards a big goal which is promoting mental health awareness.

[Battle Za Mtaa @BattleZaMtaa_]

Are young people in your communities promoting mental health awareness? If they are, how are they doing it?

Seek help when you need it. It's okay not to feel okay.

@BattleZaMtaa_ Mtaani no such thing but I have taken initiative to open up a space for peer to peer support

[Nakucheki @KymChokera]

@BattleZaMtaa_ Art is a tool that can be used to inform, Educate, Advocate, and engage people to participate in prioritizing their mental health.

Listening to Music

#longlivearts

[Battle Za Mtaa @BattleZaMtaa_]

Most peoples' coping mechanism are art related. Listening to music or painting for instance. Art helps people cope with difficult times & there are so many artistes who create content on mental health.
What other roles has art played in promoting mental health awareness?

[Mindful Wellbeing @mindfulwb]

Have you ever focused so hard on completing something, and not known what to do after? It could be completing school, or completing a work project... and immediately after, you are left with the question, "what next"? How did you deal with it?
