"Be gentle with yourself, learn to love yourself, to forgive yourself, for only as we have the right attitude toward ourselves can we have the right attitude toward others.” — Wilferd Arlan Peterson
Self love and happiness aren’t found, they are created. It isn’t a switch that is flicked one day and you are in love with yourself and your life; it is discovered, learned and practiced daily.
Your mental illness will lie to you constantly so if your attempt at being positive about yourself feels like a lie at first, that's OK. If your illness gets to lie to hurt you, you get to LIE to help yourself.If your illness isn't playing fair you shouldn't worry about it either
All of us have mental health, whether you’ve experienced a problem with it or not and it needs to be a priority for everybody. It’s just as important as our physical health ☺️

The worst part about having mental health issues is that you're seemingly required to have a breakdown in order for people to understand how hard you were trying to hold yourself together.
