Session 3: How do I know when I'm not okay?

Many of us don’t realize we’re struggling until we’re already overwhelmed. This

session focused on learning how to notice earlier signs, before things spiral.

We talked about the small cues: Changes in mood, isolation, irritability. restlessness and numbness to name a few.

Noticing these signs isn’t weakness. It’s awareness!

When we learn to recognize our own warning signals, we give ourselves the chance to respond with care instead of reacting out of habit.

Reflection

Being honest about when you’re not okay doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re paying attention.

This Week’s Practice

Write down two or three personal “red flags” that tell you you’re starting to struggle.Keep them somewhere visible. Awareness is one of the strongest tools you have.
