  • You can either dwell on your worst days or remind yourself that you've survived every single one. Everyone has horrible days they'd rather not think about but sometimes it's feels impossible. What are some ways you ground yourself in the present when you get overwhelmed by the past? #URstrong #strong365 #staystrong #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #selfcare #psychosis #recovery #askforhelp #depression #anxiety #bipolar #bipolardisorder #schizophrenia #schizoaffective #breakthestigma #endthestigma #personnotdiagnosis #panicattacks #iamnotmyillness #imnotashamed #iamnotmydiagnosis #notashamed #stigmafighter #shredstigma #stigmafree #positive #inspire
  • You are deserving of self-love and positive self-talk. Support yourself by loving yourself, even your imperfections. Be gentle with yourself, be loving, be positive. We love you, and you should too! In what ways do you show yourself some love? #URstrong #strong365 #staystrong #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #selfcare #psychosis #recovery #askforhelp #depression #anxiety #bipolar #bipolardisorder #schizophrenia #schizoaffective #breakthestigma #endthestigma #personnotdiagnosis #panicattacks #iamnotmyillness #imnotashamed #iamnotmydiagnosis #notashamed #stigmafighter #shredstigma #stigmafree #positive #inspire
  • Psychosis isn't the end of your story, just a new chapter. A diagnosis is never the end, even if it means learning to live your life differently. #URstrong #strong365 #staystrong #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #selfcare #psychosis #recovery #askforhelp #depression #anxiety #bipolar #bipolardisorder #schizophrenia #schizoaffective #breakthestigma #endthestigma #personnotdiagnosis #panicattacks #iamnotmyillness #imnotashamed #iamnotmydiagnosis #notashamed #stigmafighter #shredstigma #stigmafree #positive #inspire
  • Strong 365's Leadership Board members Christine Frey and Tiffany Martinez meet for the first time IRL after collaborating from their respective coasts (CA, ME) for the past few years. Each uses their personal experience with #psychosis to improve lives: Christine with her book & online community focused on teens, @iamchristinexp , and Tiffany as a #mentalhealth nurse practitioner & outspoken advocate. Here's to the power of a team that is fueled by a purpose that runs deep: we have no choice BUT to do this work, because we know that with the right support at the right time, it gets better ✨🌼 #strong365 #URstrong #mentalhealthawareness #talkingaboutit #schizophrenia #bipolar #depression #anxiety #Tuesdayvibes
  • A good support system is often key in a person's recovery. Support systems can consist of many people, often clinicians, friends and family, community supports, support groups, or pets. The list is different for everyone. Who supports you? Let us know! #URstrong #strong365 #staystrong #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #selfcare #psychosis #recovery #askforhelp #depression #anxiety #bipolar #bipolardisorder #schizophrenia #schizoaffective #breakthestigma #endthestigma #personnotdiagnosis #panicattacks #iamnotmyillness #imnotashamed #iamnotmydiagnosis #notashamed #stigmafighter #shredstigma #stigmafree #positive #inspire
  • Setting boundaries for yourself is an important step in your recovery and changing how and when you interact with people in your life doesn't make you a bad person. Taking care of yourself should always come first. You are the most important person in your life. #URstrong #strong365 #setboundaries #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #selfcare #psychosis #recovery #askforhelp #depression #anxiety #bipolar #bipolardisorder #schizophrenia #schizoaffective #breakthestigma #endthestigma #personnotdiagnosis #panicattacks #iamnotmyillness #imnotashamed #iamnotmydiagnosis #notashamed #stigmafighter #shredstigma #stigmafree #positive #inspire #selfcare #talkingaboutit
  • Everyone has different ways of staying balanced. Exercise, mediation, yoga, or even just taking some time to yourself to read a book or call a friend or family member. What keeps you balanced? #URstrong #strong365 #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #selfcare #psychosis #recovery #askforhelp #depression #anxiety #bipolar #bipolardisorder #schizophrenia #schizoaffective #endthestigma #personnotdiagnosis #panicattacks #iamnotmyillness #imnotashamed #iamnotmydiagnosis #notashamed #sicknotweak #stigmafighter #shredstigma #stigmafree
  • You've made it this far. You've made it past the days that you thought you never would, the days that seemed impossible, the days that tested every bit of resiliency you had in you. But in the end you made it, and you'll continue to make it. Be proud of yourself and your journey. #staystrong #keepfighting #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #selfcare #psychosis #recovery #askforhelp #depression #anxiety #bipolar #bipolardisorder #schizophrenia #schizoaffective #breakthestigma #endthestigma #personnotdiagnosis #panicattacks #iamnotmyillness #imnotashamed #iamnotmydiagnosis #notashamed #sicknotweak #stigmafighter #shredstigma #stigmafree
