Mind Over Grind from Dark Coffee
Business
Today’s short episode revolves around an article on LinkedIn, titled ‘A letter to my suicidal self’, in which I explore my transformation over the years, my relationship with mental health, including suicidal feelings and feelings of guilt.
This episode also includes topics such as:
The relationship we have with mental health, and how it may change
How important it is to live for yourself, rather than others
The importance of not being weighed down by guilt on top of suicidal feelings and depression
How vital it is to treat yourself with the compassion that you treat others with
Fluctuating mental health and how being on a journey to recovery isn’t always upwards, but is still positive
How listening to yourself speak about your own experiences can be beneficial
