What a fun weekend we had! Friends, food, drinks, sights - couldn’t have asked for a better time. ✨ I am finally getting to a healthy space mentally and if feels ahhhh-mazing! I got a little teary this weekend in acknowledgment of how much better I was doing. Comparing where I was to now is a huge difference and I am so grateful. If you need help, know you are not alone. The help you need is out there and attainable. If you need it, seek it. #livingwithbipolar #bipolardisoder #iamlivingwithbipolar #bipolardoesntdefineme #mentalhealthmatters #mentalillness #takecareofyourself #seekhelp #gethelp #happinessisattainable #loveyourself #selfcare #selfmaintenance #ifyouneeditseekit

There is a past version of you who is proud of how far you’ve come - ain’t that the truth! 💁🏽‍♀️ What are you most proud of about yourself? #mentalhealth #livingwithbipolar #livingwithadhd #bipolar #gethelp #helpyourself #strengthcomesinmanyforms #strengthcomesinallsizes #health #mentalhealth #lifestancehealth #not1face #burnthestigma #roadtorecovery #recovery #beproudofyourself #lookhowfaryouvecome

It has been two weeks since my formal Bipolar/ADHD diagnosis, but really it has been years of living with it. When I think back to how I have arrived at this new chapter of my life, I try to remember the advice that created a catalyst moment in how I help myself now. "Be your own advocate" stands out for me & has been a driving force in receiving the help I most recently needed.  Being your own advocate can be done in many different ways, whether it's taking the time for self care. Not becoming discouraged by the stigma of mental health is also huge. Another way is by setting healthy boundaries with yourself & those in your life. Don’t let the road blocks - there will be many - on your road to recovery keep you down. Understanding what I need & not settling has been a monumental shift in the way I view my mental health. The breaking point was reaching a place where I knew I not only wanted help, but more so that it was mandatory. Being my own advocate resulted in finally receiving the kind of help I needed. Now I have a team on my side who are working together to make sure I am on the right track. I am forever grateful.  #Not1Face #sponsored Life Stance Health is a great resource helping people through their mental health struggles.

A hikers gonna hike! ⛰ This gorgeous time of year makes for the best hiking weather. I just love being outside soaking up the sun as it warms the crisp air. Don’t ya agree? Hiking in the fall is the best. 🍁 🍂 #hike #fallhikingisthebest #fall #fallisintheair #fallismyfavorite #fallvibes #autumn #pnw #pnwonderland #pnwadventures #upperleftusa #rei #columbia #hikerbabes #hikerbabesseattle #babeswhohike #sheisthewild #womenwhoexplore #womenwhohike

You know I have been outspoken with my mental health struggles on social media. It’s helpful for me to be real since it is a big part of my life. In a way, sharing helps me make it less stigmatized. Also, there is a community of support & love & I thank you all for the continued kindness. I have been struggling with my mental health off & on for most of my life, with last few months being the hardest I have endured yet. Some words to describe my personal fight are: Frightening. Numbing. All-encompassing. Debilitating. Painful. Isolating. Hopeless. There was something much harder about this round of depression. Working through Covid exasperated darkness that was already there & brought it to the surface in a scary way. This was by far the lowest I have ever felt & it scared me so much more than any previous episode. I was a swarm of scary negative self-talk. I needed medical help. So since May I have been seeking medical treatment & I’ve been working with a team of health professionals. I was finally given my diagnosis just this past weekend. Finally. I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder & ADHD. I am trying my hardest to take an optimistic approach. This is me. I have been this way for most of my life. Now I just have more information about myself, I have resources to help me, & I will be better equipped to maintain a healthy mental state & stay out of the darkness, so to speak. No more dark days! So that is my truth. Heavy. Real. Where as it is a lot, I feel liberated & hopeful for my future. I now have resources & team to navigate me through this complex diagnosis. I’m so thankful for them. I will end this post with this, if you, yes YOU feel like you could use some mental health treatment, love yourself enough to put YOU first & get the help you need. Life is too short, too fragile, too unpredictable, too important to put off taking care of yourself. 🙂 #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #bipolar #bipolarawareness #bipolardisoder #helpyourself #takecareofyourself #selflove #loveyourself #help #adhd #livingwithbipolar #livingwithbipolarandsurvivinglife #covid #essentialworkers #trauma #ptsd #resourcesformentalillness
