Mental Health Check-In for today: I'm moving this week and normally when my life is kind of thrown upside down and I don't have certain stability and security my anxiety goes through the ceiling. But this week I showed myself the signs and prepared myself so I was able to recognize it immediately and I said it's fine this is a normal reaction for me.

Welcome into Unbreakable, a mental health podcast with Jay Glazier. I'm Jay Glazier, and today is a mental health check in. But before I get to that real quick, if you're like many people, you may be surprised to learn that one in five adults in this country experienced mental illness last year. Yet far too many fella receive the support they need. Carol in Behavioral Health is doing something about it.
They understand that behavioral health is a key part of whole health, delivering compationate care that treats physical, mental, emotional, and social needs in tandem. Carol and behavioral health raising the quality of life through empathy and action.
So today's a mental health check in.
Today I am in the blue because I'm proud of the progress I've made.
So here's the deal. I'm moving this week.
And normally, when my life is kind of thrown upsid down and I don't have certain stability and security in my life, my anxiety goes through the shilling.
In the past, I would just oh my gosh, I would just get so out of whack and go down a dark path. But this I showed myself these sides. In these instances, I kind of prepared myself and I said to myself, look, I know this is how you used to get but now I have better tools to deal with it. So once I start getting some anxiety about this, I recognize it immediately and I said, Okay, it's fine. This is a normal reaction for me because I don't have the stability and security that I'm used to. So again, if you can notice those triggers and you could recognize them, you can kind of use them as your friend. And what I mean by that, I was proud of myself that I recognized those triggers. I didn't just let it send me down a dark half. I actually recognized them and said, hey, you get to deal with this now. And I was able to deal with it, kind of breathed it out, kind of looked at it and said, hey, hey, I looked at it more of right, I'm moving. Things are in flux. So maybe a little you know, walky for me this week, but think of how great it's going to be once I complete this task. So instead of you know, sitting in the discomfort of this right now and wallowing that I sat in the discomfort, but I focus more on what the payoff's gonna be at the end, all right. Let's keep walkin this walk together.
