Weekends vs. weekdays
I just read an article on why weekends can be hard when you live with a mental illness… and it was pretty interesting, so just wanted to share it with you.
It was written in 2018 by Gabrielle R on The Mighty and she explains how many people feel during the weekend and why we may prefer the structure and business of weekdays over weekends.
Weekends can be a particularly hard and triggering time of the week for people with a tendency to experience worry, loneliness and rumination when faced with free time.
So if your weekends feel a bit harsh sometimes, or you experience difficulties relaxing and having fun during your time off, I would suggest reading the article 📖
Just knowing that others feel the same way can make it feel more OK and make the next weekend seem less overwhelming.
