Write To Spread #mentalhealthawareness

Hello Hivers..
Today I will continue sharing about how do we improve our mental health. Why I keep on sharing about mental health in my blog?

Because it is something that I have experienced. Before, I didn't take care of my mental health enough. I didn't know how important is. I only focused on my physical health. Until I experienced the mental illness and understand how difficult the recovery is. That's why, I want to share about this so there will be more people become aware about mental health and they don't need to suffer like me.

If you want to join me to spread mental health awareness, you can write and share about your experience too. Or you can please share my blog, follow and vote this post.. Thank you in advance :)
