Self-Doubt

“You are not your illness. You have an individual story to tell. You have a name, a history, a personality. Staying yourself is part of the battle.”

“Sometimes the people around you won't understand your journey. They don't need to, it's not for them.”

“Your illness does not define you. Your strength and courage does.”

“You are allowed to feel messed up and inside out. It doesn't mean you're defective – it just means you're human.”

“Mental health problems don't define who you are. They are something you experience. You walk in the rain and you feel the rain, but you are not the rain.”

“The only journey is the journey within.”

“Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”

“You are enough just as you are. Each emotion you feel, everything in your life, everything you do or do not do... where you are and who you are right now is enough.”

“Be patient with yourself. Self-growth is tender; it's holy ground. There's no greater investment.”
