I don’t have much to say, Dan said don’t say anything.

We had a mental health seminar at work yesterday about stress and burnout. The lady said writing in a journal was a good way to relieve stress. I already write in a journal, still stressed.

She also put up a chart with colors, like green was no stress, yellow was a little stressed and red was all the way like you are overboard on a sinking ship.

I said yellowish orange, but some people said green.

I’ve been training for the rest of my job duties and we went back in to training after the stress meeting. The girl I’m training with said ‘I don’t know how people are in the green.’ I said, ‘because they are lying. Their liars.’

I don’t know why people lie about their mental health. When I’m down, I’m down.

I’ve found that it’s usually religious people who are this way, they are taught to give it all to God and things will get better. Then they wait for God to make all their troubles go away.

I know because this is what I was taught. Now though, I tell everybody. My friends my family, they all know when something is bothering me and what is bothering me, I feel like that is a healthier way to handle things.

Anyway, have a good day.
