Me and My Recovery

Mental health, a precious treasure
Often overlooked, but its value cannot measure
A fragile thing, yet so resilient
It takes care of us, with love and fulfillment

Anxiety, depression, bipolar, BPD, PTSD, ADHD or OCD
Mental illnesses affect humanity
In silence, many suffer in depression, loneliness and despair
But it’s time to break this stigma we can no longer bear

Mental health is a life process
Self-care, mindfulness, and therapy it can progress
It’s essential to maintain our well-being
To prevent mental illness from intervening

We must take care of ourselves, both body and mind
To ensure our mental health, we must unwind
Meditate, practice self-love, and exercise
These simple things can help to prioritize

Let’s create a world where we can openly discuss
Mental health without any shame or fuss
We must support those who suffer unseen
Together, we can break the stigma and intervene

So let’s talk, educate, and uplift
Empower those who need a helpful lift
Let’s start a conversation about mental health
And make it a priority for everyone’s wealth.
