Things we think but don't say out loud.
Sometimes, we worry that needing support makes us a burden to the people we love. These thoughts can be hard to share, but you aren't alone in having them.

Quick mood check 🐶 Which dog are you today?
Happy? Exhausted? Overwhelmed? Somewhere in between?
Drop your number below. No explanation required.
#SickNotWeak #MoodCheck
When you're struggling with your mental health, even the things you once enjoyed can feel dull or distant.
You don't have to force yourself to feel happy. Pay attention to what you're experiencing, start small, and give yourself some grace.

You don't owe anyone an explanation for having a hard day.
You don't have to justify your feelings, find the right words, or pretend you're okay.
Some days are just hard. That's enough.
#SickNotWeak #MentalHealthMatters
You don’t have to do more, be more, or pretend you’re okay to matter.
You deserve kindness, connection, and support, even on the hard days.
We’re grateful you’re here. Just as you are. 💙
#SickNotWeak #MentalHealth
Finish the sentence: “I knew I needed help when…”
There’s no single moment that tells you it’s time to reach out. You don’t have to wait until things get worse to deserve support.
If you’re comfortable sharing, your story might help someone feel less alone.
#SickNotWeak
A good day doesn’t mean every day will be easy. Hard days will come, too. That doesn’t mean you’re losing progress.
Enjoy the good days. Give yourself grace on the hard ones.
#SickNotWeak #MentalHealthMatters
Some thoughts are loud. Some days feel heavier than others. You don’t have to believe every thought or fight every feeling. Sometimes, you can acknowledge it and let it pass. One moment at a time. 💚
#SickNotWeak
Depression can make your world feel smaller, making it easy to focus on everything you can’t do instead of what you still can.
A diagnosis doesn’t define you.

Sometimes the first approach doesn’t fit.
One difficult experience with therapy doesn’t mean support isn’t out there. Different therapists and approaches work for different people.
Finding the right support can take time.

“Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change.”
This year’s #WorldMentalHealthDay theme reminds us that people living with mental illness don't just have stories to tell. They have knowledge.
Listen. Learn. Act.

How many times have you typed the message… and deleted it?
“I’m not doing well.”
“Can I talk to you?”
Sometimes sending those words is the hardest part.
What helped you finally reach out?
No advice. No fixing. Just your experience.
#SickNotWeak #MIAW2026
You can be struggling and still show up.
Go to work. Make plans. Laugh. Take care of everyone else. Say, “I'm good.”
Mental illness doesn't always look like what people expect.
Looking okay doesn't mean you're okay. So be kind.
#SickNotWeak #MIAW2026
Mental health treatment isn’t one-size-fits-all.
Medication can be an important part of treatment, but there are other approaches worth understanding too.
Learn more from @AMIQuebec at their Mental Health Forum on October 29.

Medication is one treatment for mental illness, but it's far from the only one. Learn what interventions like nutrition, sleep, exercise, and ketogenic therapy can and can't do at AMI's Mental Health Forum on Oct 29, in person in Montreal or online: amiquebec.org/forum

Finding the right treatment can take time.
If something isn’t working, that doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Sometimes, finding what works means trying something different.
Keep going. Keep asking questions.
You’re worth the effort.
#SickNotWeak #MIAW2026
Sometimes people say things because they want to help.
But good intentions don't always make the words helpful.
“You seem fine.”
“Just focus on the positive.”
Sometimes you don't need someone to fix it.
You need someone to listen.

Sometimes the hardest part of mental illness isn't the symptoms.
It's wondering, “Who am I right now?”
Mental illness can change how you see yourself. It doesn't erase who you are.
#SickNotWeak #MIAW2026
You can look fine and still be struggling on the inside.
You can show up, get things done, laugh, make plans and say you're good.
Mental illness doesn't always announce itself. Sometimes, you get really good at carrying it quietly.
