🥺 The holidays can be a time of increased stress, loneliness, and pressure to be happy and festive, which can be challenging for those who are struggling with their mental health. 🤍 As @crazyheadcomics mentions in this post, mental illness does not take a holiday break, and it is important to recognize that individuals who are struggling with their mental health may have a particularly difficult time during the holiday season. ✨ It is important to recognize that seeking help for mental health struggles is a brave and important step, and those who are struggling should not feel ashamed or guilty for needing support. 🙏 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone who isn’t feeling very merry 🎄 (🎨 by @crazyheadcomics )
