lulupetals is a mental health and lifestyle blog. It's mostly about my stories and experiences with mental illness, but includes some sociopolitical topics and lifestyle entries - with additional pages to appear soon. Best reading platform is the PC, as the Mobile version omits all keywords/labels and my entries are so long.

89- Special Edition 4: Cortnee's 7 day positive vibe (6) - Open your mind
Cortnee's 7 day challenge is almost over, Day Six is: Open Your Mind (challenge: name something new you learned in the past week or month)
I think what I learned the most this week, was to better express myself and analyse a bit more the sources of my mental illnesses. I've participated to this challenge for several reasons :
The first, I wanted to participate in it as an exchange form with Cortnee who came up with the idea. I've followed her for a few months now and grown to appreciate her time in making vlogs and sharing with the community and I care about her well being.
In participating, I thought to give back a bit because I'm too far geographically to just pop up and give immediate support in time of need.
The second reason is obvious : I've been having difficulties with positivity myself, as I've been tired, lacked energy and motivation ; participating meant a certain inner kick, to boost my own grey cells in the quest and in so doing, learn how to better cope.
Thank you Cortnee for launching this. I hope you'll feel better and also take comfort that you are positively influencing many people who care about you, me included.
