I have hopes that in 2021 we celebrated a #Mindful Human Rights Day
"RSA's Constitution provides that everyone has the right to have access to health care services"- SAHRC
This year my Human Rights Day comes while I'm a patient at Life Path Health, where I'm currently undergoing treatment through their great programs, staff, and an A-team of physicians.
As part of my healing, I am confronted by the fact that there are people in my circle who continue to ignore the depth of #MentalHealthMatters, and are naively many still believe that #MentalHealthMatters are not a thing and that #Mentalillnesses come with an ON/OFF switch. That one can just snap out of #Depression, or drink some water, and #Anxiety will be no more, HACK some still believe #MoodDisorders can be laughed away.
As you start a new week, please remember that your Colleague, neighbor, newspaper, or coffee guy, might be living with a #MentalHealthCondition be #Mindful as anything can be a trigger.
I am praying for those who are stuck with jobs and bosses that continue to bring them pain and suffering. Those who are praying and seeking a job, PLEASE pray for a working environment that will not be the death of your sanity. No money in the world can cost you your sanity #MentalHealth
