I was chatting to a friend just a few days ago as I saw him say that he had been struggling and was finally doing better
…
So I reached out to him to see how he was and after a bit of back and forth we soon came to realise that we both have similar patterns when we are at our lowest points.
REACHING OUT can be hard and daunting
…
One conclusion that we came up with was to create a code word between our friends and people around us
…
Sometimes even just replying back to someone or sending them a message to say “Hey mate. I’m not doing great at the moment, can we have a chat”, is very hard to do
…
So here is our theory. Let’s create a mental health code word. Something that you wouldn’t normally say, but has no relevance to asking for help
…
For example. Chimichangas! Then we could simply reply, where and when for a coffee or are you free now for a chat
…
It’s a simple and non confronting way to let those around us know that we’re not doing so well.
Maybe give it a try, and if anyone wants to share with me their code word I will be more than happy to be there for you if you ever need to send it
…
Peace and love my friends
