Mental Health Awareness Month | A Round Up

Mental Health

May 19, 2021

Hi, sweet friends. First, thank you for all of your sweet comments on my post about my sweet Scouter. We just got home from our trip last night and it’s such an odd feeling to be home and not have him here. I think I’m still in denial. OK. I wanted to recognize Mental Health Awareness Month and share a round up of my mental health posts. They remain some of my most popular posts I’ve ever shared.

As always, I need to remind you that I’m not a mental health professional or doctor. (Breaking news, I know.) I simply write about and share my stories.

Leopard Shorts + An Anxiety Check In

LEOPARD SHORTS + AN ANXIETY CHECK IN

I recently shared an anxiety update, which talks a whole lot about grief, too. The two are inextricable for me.

How I manage my anxiety

HOW I MANAGE MY ANXIETY

I shared this post at the beginning of the pandemic, when we were all locked in our homes and well, freaking out. Still, I use these anxiety tactics daily.

How to avoid postpartum anxiety

HOW TO AVOID POSTPARTUM ANXIETY THE SECOND TIME AROUND

I shared how I was able to avoid postpartum anxiety the second time around.

Taking Zoloft During Pregnancy

TAKING ZOLOFT DURING PREGNANCY | MY STORY

Hands down, the most popular mental health post I’ve ever shared.

Overcoming first trimester depression

DEPRESSION IN THE FIRST TRIMESTER | MY STORY

Depression is a new feeling for me, and it always hits me hard in the first trimester.

Postpartum anxiety

RELENTLESSLY REAL | POSTPARTUM ANXIETY

My first mental health post. I shared this in 2016, when I was finally coming out of my postpartum anxiety fog.

    Thank you for sharing your experiences so candidly. It helps others like me–who also experienced PPD and PPA across and through 3 pregnancies–feel less alone. I first found your blog when I was helplessly searching the internet during the haze of my PPD with my third pregnancy. Your story helped normalize the idea of me going on medication to help myself. Thank you.
