Mental Health Matters: A Journey Of Healing Poem by sarah macdonald

In the realm of the mind, where thoughts intertwine,
A journey of struggles, a battle to find.
Mental health, a delicate state of being,
A journey of healing, a path worth seeing.

Anxiety, a phantom that lurks in the night,
Whispering worries, causing inner fight.
But with courage and strength, we'll face the unknown,
Taking steps forward, our fears overthrown.

Depression, a shadow that blankets the soul,
Draining the spirit, taking its toll.
Yet within lies resilience, a flickering light,
Guiding us out of the darkest of nights.

Bipolar, a rollercoaster of highs and lows,
A dance of emotions, where chaos often flows.
But with stability and support by our side,
We'll navigate the waves, finding peace inside.

Eating disorders, a battle with self-image,
Distorting perceptions, causing inner scrimmage.
But with self-love and acceptance as our guide,
We'll break free from the chains, our true selves we'll find.

PTSD, the remnants of past pain,
Memories haunting, like a relentless rain.
But through therapy's embrace and healing's touch,
We'll reclaim our power, and rise above.

Let us break the stigma, let us be kind,
For mental health matters, in body and mind.
With empathy and understanding, we extend our hand,
Supporting each other, creating a compassionate land.

For mental health is not a sign of weakness or shame,
It's a journey of growth, where we reclaim our name.
So let us stand together, united and strong,
Promoting mental wellness, where we all belong.

In this rhyming poem, our voices are heard,
Spreading awareness, spreading the word.
Mental health matters, it's time to break free,
For a world of compassion and healing to see.
