Happy Monday y’all! 

During the month of September, it is so important to recognize Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. I don’t have to explain to anyone how important it is stand united in supporting each other. I truly feel the more awareness that’s spread about world mental health, the brighter our future will be. Even if you’ve never been depressed, someone close to you have experienced it without you knowing about it. One thing you should know about depression is that it’s not a topic not easily spoken about. I think it is why mental health should be taken so seriously and not ignored. I know when I feel down, I have trouble expressing how I am feeling. There are moments I don’t understand why I am depressed. I have extremely dark moods. I hate those times, and I fight that feeling as much as I can. Is my Fibromyalgia a good reason for all of this? Yes, it can be. That is why I am blessed to be in a group where I have friends who are going through the same thing.
