REFLECTION ON EPISODE 2

IT'S OK NOT TO BE OKAY: A WEBINAR ON MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAM

These recent days I was a little anxious about myself. there were times I question myself about these
and that like what should I do, what I like to do how and where do I start. some people love reading or listening
to some quotes or opinions of other people on the internet but reading those just makes me more and more
anxious and stressed. I always remind myself that everyone has different experiences in life and their ways
might not work on mine so it’s better to figure things out my way than following some ideas or points of view
on these people on the internet net I do appreciate the message that they convey.
this webinar’s okay not to be okay made me think that there will always be those times when we are
experiencing uneasiness in our life but it’s just normal and just instilled in my mind that these things just come
and go, and I just must deal of whatever there is either a problem or good stuff. but what really causes my stress
today is that I sort of have difficulty interacting with people, especially those I only talk to or have
communicated with very seldom, for me it’s not about being shy but talking to them is exhausting me
especially when I am not that fan of small talk. This is my huge struggle today and I am still trying to figure out
if it’s okay for me to be like this or do I have to force myself to talk more.
In conclusion, I guess everyone finds strength from other people’s experiences too, and just as this
webinar introduced me to those hurdles, we fight by ourselves and at least I’ve learned what are those feeling
and why I am feeling or experiencing it for the next step ill just have to cope up and find some mechanism that
works for me.
