Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of Ukraine 🇺🇦
“…But after that, he broken the cease-fire. He killed our people and he didn’t exchange prisoners. We signed the exchange of prisoners, but he didn’t do it. What kind of diplomacy, JD, you are speaking about? What do you mean?” -President Zelenskyy

Hands off our antidepressants
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., please don’t piss me off. 🤡
Zoloft and other antidepressants have been life-saving for me and so many others. How someone chooses to stabilize their child’s mental instability is THEIR business and their decision to make.
Not yours!
Pill Shaming 💊
As a mental health advocate, it is my responsibility to be transparent. For the last four years, I have taken Zoloft to assist with my mental health.
Zoloft (Sertraline): Sertraline is a medication that increases the amount of serotonin hormone in your brain. It treats depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions.
Pill shaming occurs when someone expresses negative opinions or disdain when you tell them you’re using medication to treat a mental health disorder.
Pill shaming? Yeah, don’t.

Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA)
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993 is a US labor law that allows eligible employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave for certain family and medical reasons. The law also requires that employees maintain their group health benefits during their leave.
FMLA has been such a crucial safety net as I navigate my mental health struggles. The protection it provides offers a sense of peace during my most fragile moments. It’s a vital component in my mental health journey. I am extremely grateful.
Prioritizing mental health can lead to a more fulfilling and balanced life. Remember, self-care is not selfish, it’s essential. Focusing on your mental health is bold and courageous.
Cheers to 32 years of FMLA!
