Self care is sacred. It makes me sad that as we wake up to another day, another person on this earth decided they did not want to see another day - referring to the news of Kate Spade. This adds to Aviici and other people of notoriety, who either by self harm, substance abuse or other self harm departed - eg Ernest Hemingway, Robin williams, Alexander Mcqueen, Vincent van gogh, Marilyn Munroe etc. The unfortunate situation is that as news about these mental health stories comes and goes, there are everyday people around the world facing their own challenges. . According to the Australian bureau of statistics, in 2016 the suicide rate in Australia was 11.7 deaths per 100,000 people - figures equated this to around 7 people per day. . Add to that Indigenous people died by suicide at more than double the rate of non-indigenous people across all age groups. The real tragedy is that more often than not, people facing challenges put on a facade or simply live each day in silence not wanting to create a fuss. Whether you have anxiety, depression, burnout or any other mental health challenge on the spectrum - regardless of how minor it may be - it pays to reach out and create dialogue with those around you. . Especially in the era of endemic capitalism, where everyone is made to fit the mould of perfection or idea of success, we need to show ourselves more self care - to look honestly within ourselves and take steps for self care, as opposed to creating a hollow glossy veneer to please others and conform. I can guarantee there is someone you know (or it may be yourself) who may be facing challenges either apparent or hidden. The conversation needs to continue! Self care matters. Mental health matters. Everyone is important – including you! #katespade #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealth #wellbeing #melbourne #suicide #depression #australia #mental #health
