It's #worldmentalhealthday today and I feel like I It's #worldmentalhealthday today and I feel like I should try to break the taboo by sharing. I've not said much about my mental health on social media for a long time as I seem to find it harder and harder to talk about as I get older. I used to wear my heart on my sleeve, but events in the past couple of years have made me less able to do this. It's just too painful to share, except for in very safe spaces. As a result I am usually functioning on very high levels of anxiety as intrusive, harmful thoughts haunt me every moment I'm alone. Dealing with mental health difficulties isn't as simple as talking, although it does often help. But if you can't talk about it just yet, there are still things that can help get through the day. For me it is remembering not to take on too much, allowing time to rest and get outdoors, notice things, focus on physical activity, being creative or playing with my children. I know these seem obvious, but I have to remind myself to do these things sometimes. If you want to help someone who is struggling and they don't want to talk, try making them a cup of tea, running them a bath, lending them a book, sending them cute/funny pictures, putting a film on, taking them for a walk... Don't push people to talk or panic when they don't. Showing love makes a huge difference. . This image is of scraped off posters in Leeds. I hate being in the city centre at the moment for work, but noticing this made it a little more bearable. . . . #mentalhealth #wellbeing #anxiety #mindfulness #mentalhealthawareness
Totally forgot that I've added these moth prints t Totally forgot that I've added these moth prints to my online shop (link in profile)! . I'd love to have feedback on this... Should I do more non-birdy prints? I also love making things by hand printing methods, but during lockdown it wasn't as easy to do and I did loads of drawing instead that translated well into digital prints. I'd also like to churn out more work than I can physically make, so digital printing gives me more options. What's your thoughts on digital printing? .
