NEW STORY is live! Kate's words and #mentalhealth

NEW STORY is live! Kate's words and #mentalhealth journey are bound to inspire. 🦋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A complicated childhood. Father's absence. Monther's strict discipline... Read or listen to Kate's story and send it to a young person who may be feeling alone and scared. Let them know that they are valued and that they, too, have the strength to move forward. #yourwords #buststigma #PTSDsupport

This is Kate, our first contributor in December ❄💙#mentalhealthwarrior. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Kate is a student in one of the two top universities of Russia, lives alone, and prefers a good book > a company of friends (even though her friends usually don’t leave any choice for her but to hang out with them). Little by little she is making steps towards her dream: becoming a fiction writer. Stephen King, Franz Kafka, Howard Lovecraft and Edgar Poe inspire her every day and help her make her dream a reality.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Starting TODAY we share Kate's words about how once she began to understand the effects of her father's abandonment and mother's harsh parenting methods on her mental health, she began to #heal. 💙

It’s okay not to be okay. It’s okay to feel a little out of control right now. But know that no matter what happens, it’s going to be okay. You’ve survived every single day until now, so you’re going to get through this too.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
