Lock In!

It is still July, which means in South Africa, it is still Mental Illness Awareness Month.

We care about you.

We love you.

Sorry, I feel like I'm sounding like...

Okay, it doesn't matter, but you know what I was going to say.

But anyways, but genuinely on a serious note, yeah, I will never stop advocating for it.

I'll never stop speaking up for it.

I'll never stop, you know, just...

With my lungs, with my whole heart, it's just going, guys, mental health, mental illness, like just all of it.

Like, let's speak about it.

Let's destigmatize it.

Let's, you know, seek guidance and stuff.

But also, let's also not weaponize it for the love of goodness.

Let us not weaponize our mental health as an excuse to be terrible, as an excuse to be bullies, an excuse to... to be inconsistent and excuse to just treat people less than what they deserve, you know, um, as much as we should be raising awareness and like all of that kind of stuff, we should also know that we can't use it as a way to just move as to just be terrible people on this planet, please.

And thank you, you know, um, yeah, let's educate ourselves accordingly.

Let's get help accordingly and all of that kind of stuff.

Speak to someone, speak to me like, yeah, please, please, please check in on your friend, check in on your strong friend, um, Check in on your strong friend, check in on the friend that's always checking in on you, you know, checking on the people that, you know, you've always, every time you think about them, you're like, oh, they're so put together.

Oh, they just have it all together.

They're just, they're just cruising through life.

Check in on them, please.

They're desperate.

They're desperate for you to ask them like, you know, if they're okay.
