SIGNS SOMETHINGS WRONG

ppl sometimes ignore the warning signs of a persons cry for help alcoholism' drug addiction and substance abuse self harm and comfort eating can all be signs that someone is suffering their own personal hell sometimes these things can be a form of escape from the turmoil that's happening mentally and in their personal lives there is a lot of stigma and taboo around such issues and mental health in general ppl tend to say that it is just attention seeking or brush such things under the carpet if they ignore it long enough they'll stop it but the problem is it will always be present there in the background until it is addressed and that person receives counselling or professional help mental illness must be addressed ALWAYS if someone says to you they don't feel ok take them seriously get them help and support them there can be many other forms of personal abuse too which can be cries for help

Thank you for posting this. I've been through my own personal hell for years.....I'm a survivor.....alcoholism to mask mental illness. No one saw the signs and I had to eventually gather my own strength and help myself. I've been sober now for almost 17 years and I got help for mental illness and have recently gotten on the right meds.
