You probably wouldn’t guess this by looking at it, but this picture was taken at a really low point in my life. I was struggling with anxiety constantly, and it was affecting my school, job, family, relationships and just life in general. I was going through a lot, but I didn’t want to tell anyone because I didn’t want to be labeled as mentally ill. I didn’t want that stigma surrounding me forever. Well, eventually that changed. I took control of my mental health and I sought help—but not without being pushed to do so. Today is #worldmentalhealthday, so I wanted to take a moment (or a few moments) to remind everyone that it’s okay not to be okay. It’s okay to admit that something isn’t right and that you need help. It’s time to erase the stigma surrounding mental illness and focus on what really matters—getting better. Link to my latest post about erasing the stigma is in my bio.

I came home from work super motivated to work out (surprising, I know) but per usual I felt so bad leaving Zoey 😩 So I gave the whole working out at home thing a go. Needless to say, it involved a lot of throwing Zoey’s bone around, snuggles and belly rubs between sets, but I managed to get a 30 min workout in. She did get fed up toward the end, and stared nibbling my fingers mid-pic. I guess that’s life with a dog 🤷🏽♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
