Quote by Nedra Glover Tawwab

“When people say, “I’m anxious, depressed, or I need to work on my mental health.” Don’t question it. Don’t tease them. Don’t diminish their issues because you want something from them and their mental health limits their ability to deliver. It was hard enough for them to acknowledge and share. If you do not understand because you’ve never experienced mental health issues, go educate yourself. Do not look to them for everything you need to know about mental health. They are learning too. Do the work to understand.”

“Quicker than I ever hoped, I land at the other side of my illness: slightly battle-scarred, slightly hungrier, and a little wiser. I have flaws. I live with restrictions. I have to change. But those sacrifices now seem easy to make, knowing what they will give me. I feel as though I, too, have shed some leaves: those last shreds of belief in my youthful robustness, when I could do anything, endure anything, and bounce back.”

“How peculiar it feels to speak about health care in America taking care of people’s health while our government bombs the limbs off children in faraway lands. And starves and imprisons not a few of them at home. How odd that it seems not obviously known that true health care must mean, at minimum, deliberate non-harming of anyone?”
