How to Create a Self Care Plan for your Mental Health

About Me

1. Things that are important to me?

 2. My hopes for the future and things I want to change?

It is important to know what goals you would like to set for yourself?

Having goals no matter how big or small is a great way to stay focused.

3. Things I do well and things that help me?

Very often we don’t like thinking about things we do well, it took me a long time to see myself in a positive way. So don’t get burdened down with this too much. Focus on what you find that helps instead.

4. Things I may need to help with?

This can be anything, from making new friends, creating a support network, housing, relationships, help with an abusive relationship? My motto is just write everything down and then you have a plan to tackle those things one at a time
