Mental health awareness truly should be discussed more regularly. We live in a society where either people victimize themselves or they internalize their issues; both of which are not a solution in dealing with things.

You can have gone through some really horrible things in your life and still have the same opportunity as everyone else to be a decent human being. You can be the funny person who always has a smile on their face, but you are allowed moments of weakness to deal with your struggles.

Life is actually pretty tough, and there is nothing wrong in acknowledging that. Counseling is not wallowing in your misery, it’s setting a foundation to build yourself up to handle life’s everyday hurdles whether they be big or small. Having an unbiased perspective can truly help you see things differently and not feel hopeless or alone.

I truly am a massive advocate for BetterHelp. The business itself is an amazing platform. Affordable pricing, 24/7 access, and exceptional counselors.

My personal journey has been a testament in itself. For so long I, like many people, put the need for counseling on the back burner, and as a result, my life really began to unravel and I felt like I was suffocating from the weight of it. I am not someone who sinks into misery, I am a fighter, but I lost sight of that girl.

I was paired with Rob Beckett as my counselor. I had some pretty heavy stuff to deal with, even things I had never disclosed to anyone, and I didn’t know if a counselor could handle me, to be honest. I could not have been paired better. Rob has truly been such a support system. He responds within a timely manner, we can discuss anything and everything, and he is a true professional. Not to mention he also is extremely down to earth, very relatable, and gives realistic feedback. In your hardest moments, he can provide compassion, but he also can keep you from wallowing with his humor.

This company being available, the people it employees, and the benefits it provides, have all made an impact on my life. Is everyday easy now? No, and that will never be the case, but every day is a easier now in knowing I have an incredible support system.
