Stay Social to Stay Sane :)

Hi there! Well done on taking a step towards greater mental health, because to stay sane, it's important to stay social 🙂

If you go through a prolonged amount of time without reaching out, you miss out opportunities for others to provide their input on your experiences that you have especially when you're having it rough, so you could be stuck internalising negative feelings and even start to believe everything you feel despite it not being entirely rational such as the whole world being against you. This phenomenon is called emotional reasoning. I've learned this from personal experience and it's not fun, so get out there whether it's online (like SANE) or in-person, and connect with someone 😄

*Introducing myself*

Hi everyone, some might say I'm actually a phoenix? Nah I'm just kidding, I'm new to this space and ngl I never knew this platform existed until today but hear me out. I've been on a journey of self-discovery for a full year and I've learned some stuff that have helped me live life feeling more happy and fulfilled so today I decided to join to give tips based on personal experiences that could help some of y'all there. I'll probably be on SANE every now and then so I can't promise I'll be on here all the time but let's see how it goes! Wishing all of y'all the best with your journeys to greater mental health!
