What’s working for you regarding your mental health? Do you have a mental health regimen? What behaviors or strategies do you want others to know about or practice more often?

I want to know!

As a therapist, I am insatiably curious about people’s mental health efforts and what works for them–as well as what doesn’t.

Do you swear by self-help books? A particular workout? A gratitude practice? A satisfying hobby? Is there a daily routine that keeps you stable? Maybe your progress has been made up of many smaller steps and changes that have added up to a more joyful, meaningful life.

Sometimes, the little things are the big things. Maybe most of the time they are.

Do you have inner peace? Have you learned to truly like and be proud of yourself, like the self-help books and influencers are always telling us to do?

Are you … happy?

Your story can encourage and inspire others. Share with us!

I am currently looking for true mental health success stories, either previously published or unpublished. As an alternative, I can conduct a brief one-email interview with you with five or six questions regarding your story. I encourage you to share links to your blog, website or other writings with my readers as well. We can also exchange stories for each other’s sites if that interests you.

Mental health is hard. Your story is important–even if it doesn’t seem particularly exciting or dramatic.

I look forward to hearing from you in the comments.
