So 2021 has come, this past year has been a huge challenge to most.It has tested the best of people, many have lost family,jobs,lifestyle,and more. Yet...every day we get up is another day to look to the positives. The new year brings a chance for people to make resolutions, but instead of giving something up,maybe we should take something up instead,such as kindness, being there for one another.Putting perspective on things.

Many will struggle this year also, reach out and get help,it may be a simple phone call to a friend or even a stranger but don't sit in silence. This past year I've had health scares,I've lost my job and I needed to speak to someone. Because it's OK not to be OK. Today is a new day, I'm better than I was some months back, health is good again and mentally I'm stronger but know I will have some good and some bad days but im able to understand things better and try to get through it.

We may be locked down at present but don't be locked in, speak to someone if you need. There are so many helplines out there that help,a chat can sometimes make a difference. This thread is just my experience but its not meant to be about me,its to show anyone who may be struggling abit that you can and will get through it. Dont be afraid to speak, online forums may not be the place for everyone but it may help someone to reach out and feel better. So for 2021, let's all mind one another and importantly mind ourselves.

Good post, mental health is something we should all be aware of and open about. No reason for anyone to be suffering alone anymore.
