From the bottom up, of course! -let’s identify what challenges you have - depression, anxiety, bipolar, etc. -let’s start keeping a journal (yuck, we know) - document what they feel like, how long these episodes last or if you’re in a constant state of this challenge, what’s the experience like? -how have you coped with it in the past? -what has worked? What hasn’t? -let’s start to establish a pattern or familiarity with these challenges - the best way to understand and combat something is by understanding it - journaling
Why we call them challenges and not illnesses!
