happy pride and mens mental health month, everyone!
if youre going to a pride parade, please remember to stay safe and drink plenty of water! i hope you all have the opportunity to be proud of your sexuality and celebrate it!
im going to write a little more on mens mental health month as i feel it is just as important as pride, however tends to get overshadowed.
although it is men's mental health month, it is not just for men. it is for everyone. we all have a mental health, some in healthier conditions than others, and that's totally okay!
men often struggle to talk about their mental health due to the social stigma and the "man up" attitude towards men. i encourage you all, man, woman or otherwise to stop bottling it up - please, seek the help you need. whether that be a friend, family member or going to a professional. hell, you could even find a random stanger on the internet to just rant to. i encourage you to find a healthy coping mechanism for any mental health issues. that way, you can live your best life and treat those around you in a more considerate way.
love you all, stay safe
