Speak Up About Your Mental Health.

6m · Mental Wellness Cindy · 23 Oct 17:12

It is very important to join the conversation about mental health. Most importantly it’s imperative that we all speak up when our mental health is affected. Your mental health could be affected by the things people around you do, or by the situ is you are living in. If people around you are doing or saying things that affect you speak up. If you feel they will understand and try to change their actions, speak directly to them. However if you don’t feel safe doing so then, speak to a friend, your doctor or a mental health professional who will be able to help you. As a society we need to change our attitude towards mental health and people with mental health issues. Social services needs to stop demonising parent with mental health issues. Instead they should support them so their children will have better outcomes. Employers need to look after the mental health of their employees without penalising them. As friends and family we need to take the time to ask each other how we are feeling and be prepared to help. We all need to STOP the stigma around mental health because it will save a lot of lives, currently lost because people feel alone and unable to speak up.

Why Narcissists Devalue You

Narcissists devalue you to increase their own sense of self-worth. To explain this further, while a narcissists self esteem can be high, it can also be super fragile, dependent on external validation or self-deception. 1. You need to set your BOUNDARIES and stick to them no matter what the narcissist does. They hate having boundaries imposed, so be prepared for the pushback! If you need to block them from being able to contact you on all platforms including phone calls, texts, emails and social media go ahead. Setting boundaries should also include setting personal boundaries such as not sharing personal information. 2. Another important step in surviving the narcissists’ abuse is acknowledging the abuse be it past or present. If the narcissist is a romantic partner, family member, or friend it can be difficult to accept that some people just do not seem to care when they hurt others. Mental health issues do not excuse abuse. 3. Learn more about narcissistic behaviours because being able to identify the tactics often used by people with narcissism can both make it easier to come to terms with your own abuse as well as giving you strategies to reduce the negative impact their behaviours can have on you. 4. Take care of yourself and RECLAIM YOUR IDENTITY!!!! If you had changed your looks and style or lost things and friend or family because of the narcissist reclaim them. 5. Do not criticise yourself for the abuse because no one deserves abuse, and the narcissists abuse is not your fault! Instead REMEMBER to forgive yourself.
