Preparing for Struggles Ahead

Oct 12, 2023 | Mental Health Ministry, Stronger Together Support Group

Just last week we had a lighthearted (but thoughtful and productive) conversation about joy. What a difference a week can make.

I suspect you are as heartbroken as I am, and maybe more. Let’s talk about it tomorrow, shall we?

I also want to share with you an article sent to me that was published in WaPo. On the surface it’s about Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD, which we’ve discussed previously in Stronger Together. The underlying theme, however, is about how we prepare for mental health struggles ahead. The article was published Oct. 5, two days before the attack on Israel.

Our warm-up question for this week:

How are you feeling right now, and what have been the range of emotions you’ve felt over the past few days?

See you soon,
Alex
