I was followed by security at @Sephora, a shopping day for me is making sure I don’t “look” suspicious.. having to prove I “belong” there, but damn this use to be my favorite pass time now I’m just uncomfortable. #shoppingwhileblack

Yes! Just because money has a social value doesn’t make it the only type of wealth.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Lie: Money is the only type of wealth.

In reality, there are 5 types of wealth:
• Financial (money)
• Social (relationships)
• Physical (health)
• Mental (knowledge, faith)
• Time (freedom)

The pursuit of financial wealth can rob you of the others.

Don't let that happen.

This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

As a parent, my heart is broken seeing these faces and their ages.

My condolences to their families during this difficult time 🙏🏻

…. people still only have benefit coverage to psychologist. Add PSYCHOTHERAPIST please, psychologist are inaccessible right now. Your saying “We’ll give you coverage to your mental health but not to the people you can access”

[SelfCareTO @SelfCareTO1]

To those starting therapy for the first time. I notice those initial nerves but then I witness the breath of relief. I see you & your courage.

When they tell you to just “suck it up” 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

[SelfCareTO @SelfCareTO1]

When they say mental health is all in your head 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

[SelfCareTO @SelfCareTO1]

When they don’t believe in therapy 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

“I am not afraid” thank you for bringing beauty & awareness during a a stage of life so many of us fear. My condolences to your sun and moon ❤️

Now that I have 100K followers, I want to talk about #OvarianCancer. Specifically my gritty story. The goal is awareness. I hope you find this narrative informative.

Burnout is not a mental illness diagnosis.

Burnout is an occupational health issue.

The solution is not “more resilience” or more medication.

[SelfCareTO @SelfCareTO1]

Working in private practice has granted me the privilege to not be in a lot of group zoom meetings but I’m in one now and the sense of anxiety I get when people don’t know there unmuted is overwhelming 🙈

[SelfCareTO @SelfCareTO1]

I tweeted this out already but if any student group, association or individual students need support / guidance. I will offer up time and space. 6/6

Reading this thread. Violence on campus has been a concern even when I was in Uni over 10 years ago. Trauma is like throwing a stone in the lake… the many ripples it creates …. The different impacts it has. 1/6

[kat @katrinaxdj]

This weekend’s events have been completely life altering for people. The anger, shame, guilt, devastation, and grief are palpable around campus. Nothing about this can ever be swept under the rug. I hope @WesternU is ready to take action because I know the students are. 10/10

[SelfCareTO @SelfCareTO1]

I only hope @WesternU is looking at ways to manage risk, to provide safety protocols, to educate students on consent, to provide support groups, to liaison with community agencies, to develop standards for off campus events & holding students accountable. 5/6
