To The Person Having A Bad Day, It's Okay

It's okay to have bad days. Everyone has one every once in a while. You are not alone.

You are only human. It's okay to make mistakes. It's okay to be less than perfect. Everyone else is too.

It's okay to cry. Cry a lot if you need to. Your feelings and emotions are valid.

It's okay to do what's best for you. Stay alive. Take some deep breaths. Eat some good food. Drink lots of water. Put on some comfy clothes. Go for a walk. Do whatever it is you need to do. Taking care of yourself is one of, if not, the most important thing you can do.

It's okay to be yourself. Sometimes it's the best thing you can do. Never lose sight of who you are.

I know it's so much easier said than done, but don't be afraid to reach out for help when you need it.

Don't forget about all of the days where everything went right for you. You make a difference in the world.

For those who need to hear it, healing is not linear.

Don't believe everything you think. Sometimes the worst liars we know are ourselves.

Be kind.

Be gentle with yourself. I know you are trying your best. You are stronger and braver than you can imagine. You are so resilient.

Your bad day won't last forever. I promise you that. You will be back to yourself soon enough. Better days are coming for you. Don't give up on yourself. You may not realize it, but you have so many people in your corner who are constantly supporting and rooting for you.

It's okay. Keep your chin up. You are enough. You are loved.
