Have you Done a Mental Health Check-in Lately?

3/5/2019

0 Comments

 
I've been feeling pretty listless lately. Not to mention tired, achy, grumpy... all in all pretty much in desperate need of a mental and physical break. 

It can be frustrating when you spend so much energy trying to make sure you're doing all the things to keep yourself mentally and physically healthy (I try to eat right[ish], get in some occasional exercise [within my limits], I speak kindly to myself and am patient with my limitations, I am mindful of my music and television/movie/book choices) and yet mental and physical health continue to be a struggle for me- and I know I'm not alone in that struggle, so I want to ask you something:

Have you checked-in with yourself lately? How are you doing? If it's been a while since you've asked yourself these kinds of questions, I encourage you to take some time and check-in with yourself. If you're not sure how to do this, I've included a few helpful resources below:
  • A good guide on how to check-in with yourself and others (good for non-students and students alike): https://www.ualberta.ca/campus-life/mhcheck-in  
  • A pretty good generic wellness assessment worksheet: https://www.therapistaid.com/worksheets/wellness-assessment.pdf
  • Several helpful Mental Health worksheets (on a wide variety of topics): https://www.psychpoint.com/mental-health/worksheets/
  • More tools (from Mental Health America): http://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/self-help-tools
And Just in case...

If you or someone you know has been struggling with suicidal thoughts, you can call 
1-800-273-8255 to reach the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, which provides 24/7 free and confidential support and resources for you or your loved ones.

We care about you, and YOU MATTER!


Gentle Hugs from everyone at The FSC
