15 Things To Do To Drastically Improve Your Mental Health
Set mental health goals before the year ends and start living your best life yet!
In Today’s day and age, where most of us are guilty of living a fast-paced lifestyle, there’s no doubt that our mental health can easily be taken for granted.
I’m definitely guilty of this. I’ve never really realized how crucial our mental health is until I found myself at the lowest point of my life.
Before hitting my rock bottom, I was constantly pushing myself to exhaustion and burnout. I would constantly overextend myself thinking that my worth and value were tied to other people’s approval and validation.
I was drained and I was so unhappy. But instead of facing my emotions and feelings and accepting how I really felt, I bottled it up and I kept pretending to myself and to others that I was perfectly happy and okay.
I didn’t really realize how much of a toll it took on my mental and emotional health, until the day I found myself at my lowest. I knew that if I wanted to pick myself back up and reset my life, I had to start making my mental health a priority.
And that’s why I started setting mental health goals. Setting mental health goals made it easier for me to focus on certain areas of my life that I needed to change for me to heal, grow and move forward with my life happier.
If you feel like you’ve been taking your mental health for granted for far too long, this is a great place to start. In this post, I will be sharing with you my very own mental health goals and the steps I took to reach these goals.
I’m hoping that these will inspire you and help you set your own mental health goals!
Why Are Mental Health Goals Important?
Setting mental health goals for me was a real game changer. It gave me the perfect opportunity to reflect on my mental state, happiness and emotional health.
It gave me a clearer direction on what I wanted to achieve, the steps I need to take and the habits I needed to let go of to help me achieve these goals.
When I was at my lowest, almost everything in my life was falling apart. There were days when everything just felt so overwhelming and daunting that even getting out of bed was a struggle. I lost all motivation and quite frankly, I felt really hopeless.
Setting mental health goals gave me a sense of hope and control. It reminded me that I had the power to change my life and turn it around. It helped fuel my determination to get up every day and take action.
