There are moments when I feel so lost and pressured, especially with everything going on in my life right now. Your posts and your voice have this incredible ability to lift me up; it's almost like you know exactly what I need to hear, and that connection means the world to me. A few weeks ago, I actually named a star after you; that’s located in the sky visible from Charlestown. I still can't believe it. It makes it feel like you're watching over me, shining bright even in my darkest hours. I really wish you knew just how much I love you and how much your presence in my life has helped me navigate through these challenging times, your humor, your acting. and your ability to connect with people inspires me to keep pushing through. I really hope I get to meet you one day, to share my gratitude and let you know how you saved me. You may not realize it, but your influence has been a guiding light, and I cherish every single post you share. Your strength and resilience remind me that even in the toughest times, there's always a reason to keep going. knowing that you're out there, sharing your journey and your insights, gives me hope. I want you to know that I'm here cheering for you, just as you've been a source of encouragement for me, you truly make a difference in my life, and I'm so grateful for that. Thank you for being you and for all the ways you inspire me to keep moving forward. Happy birthday mads. forever proud of you. - hugs & love; Lucky. #luckelynforeverandever @maddie #madelyncline #madelynreneecline #edit #edits #birthday
I was sectioned under the Mental Health Act, taken to a place that was supposed to help me heal. Instead, I found myself in a system that didn’t seem built for recovery—just containment. Mental health hospitals are meant to be places of safety, but too often, they fail the people who need them most. Patients are left isolated, overmedicated, and treated as problems to be managed rather than people to be helped. Staff are stretched thin, genuine therapy is rare, and the very environment that should support healing can instead deepen trauma. I went in struggling with OCD and suicidal thoughts. I left with more scars than I arrived with—not just physical, but emotional. The system didn’t save me. It failed me. And I know I’m not alone in that. We need real reform. We need hospitals that treat mental health with the same urgency, care, and respect as physical health. We need proper funding, proper training, and a shift from control to compassion. Because right now, too many people are being let down, and too many lives are at risk. If you’ve been through it, I see you. If you’re still fighting, keep going. And if you believe mental health care should actually care, speak up. Change starts with conversation.

If you are moving through it right now and you feel like you can’t see the next step in front of you, I just want to remind you that you truly have no idea what the next minute, the next hour, and the next day holds for you. Maybe, just maybe, it’s all going to work out. Maybe, just maybe, everything is happening for you and unfolding in the most beautiful way, that you just can’t see yet. Maybe, just maybe, things will be even greater than you could have even imagined. And I think you deserve to find out. Hang on, and hang in there. I love you 🫂 #selflove #fyp #mentalhealth #confidence #motivation
