realize that not “minding” your business can change your life for the worse. We must get out of
the mindset that seeking help for our mental illnesses/disorders will have people thinking
negatively about you or that people will look upon you as weak. When it comes to your
health…who cares if a person has such an ignorant opinion of you? Your quality of life depends
on you doing more to look out for your mental health. In today’s society with all that is going on,
it will say more about your character if you don’t seek help because of how someone else views
you. Remember…you are not crazy or weak if you need help for a mental illness/disorder. Take
it in your own hands to help overcome the negative stigmas associated with mental health and
having a mental illness/disorder. Simply put…”Mind” Your Business!
