Life now like, whereas before I wanted to get out and socialize, now I just kind of want to be by myself. And I actually think you need to seek help, no matter what. It's important to do that support to get help. You have to make some sort of a first step. That's what it all boils down to.
Ever feel like taking the first step towards better mental health is the hardest part? Jay M knows that feeling well. In this episode of the 'Unscripted Anxiety Show', Jay opens up about his personal battles with anxiety and depression, and the crucial steps he's taken to start his recovery journey. He candidly discusses the impact of social media on mental health, noting how it can often lead to unhealthy comparisons and added pressure.
Jay encourages listeners to form their own values and beliefs, rather than getting caught up in the often misleading portrayals online. Jay's journey hasn't been easy. He shares his experiences with seeking help and emphasizes that there's no quick fix for mental health challenges. Instead, he highlights the importance of taking small, manageable steps. One of those steps for Jay was volunteering, which helped him build confidence and develop new skills.
Throughout the episode, Jay's message is clear: seeking help is vital, and it's okay to take things one step at a time. Whether it's through therapy, medication, or self-care practices, there are many ways to find support. Building a network of people who believe in you can make a significant difference. Jay's story serves as a powerful reminder that recovery is a journey. By sharing his own experiences, he offers hope and encouragement to anyone facing similar struggles.
