What tips would you give to someone who’s been struggling with their mental health?

Simran’s reflection

It is completely okay to not have everything figured out right now, so please be gentle with yourself and take things one small step at a time. Focus on the daily basics like getting enough sleep, eating well, and stepping outside for a little fresh air.. while remembering that you don't have to carry this heavy weight alone, as reaching out to a therapist or a trusted friend can make a world of difference.
