That's What Chi Said's video: POSITIVE THINKING RUINED MY LIFE Mental Health Awareness Week

*OPEN ME* Hello Lovelies! This week is Mental Health Awareness week. The theme is Kindness: https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/campaigns/mental-health-awareness-week I thought I'd come and share with you my experiences of becoming kinder to myself and how toxic positivity did more harm than good! I love me some good motivational quotes and content, but how much is too much before it starts to become detrimental? This video is about how I (over) used positivity to cushion my stress and anxiety. This video is about recognising the importance of allowing yourself to feel. Thank you so much for watching. I hope that this was useful.
