It's been 20 years. 🫠 Can we finally bin off the idea of "𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳" and focus on 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿-𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀? 💡

We're rebranding "Blue Monday", and bringing you a colourful challenge to benefit your mental health. 🌈💚

Blue Monday is just marketing. An astronaut stands on a rock at the beach, a starry sky above with planets and a rocket.

Check in with your friends, your family, and yourself. 🫂 This time of year can be overwhelming, stressful, and even painful.

Sometimes we don't feel up to being merry and bright, and that's okay. 💚 So, what can we do to get through?

Monday nights are for hijacking the charity Bsky account to encourage you to MAKE A LIST! 📝

What goes on that list is up to you, but if you know you're impacted by Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) then prep for when it hits. 💚

Here's mine for inspo! ✨ It needs a tidy but the vibes are immaculate.
Google Keep list called "kick the SAD in the butt" referring to Seasonal Affective Disorder. List is as follows: "are you ACTUALLY hydrated tho? like actually? coffee doesn't count", "your weight goals don't outweigh your brain thinking you deserve to be alive, have a damn treat if it'll help", "speaking of your wellbeing, you do actually need oxygen, so when was the last time you had a big gulp of fresh air?", "literally just watch lord of the rings again, just do it, you know it helps", "CAN I PET THAT DAWG?! yes.", "have you considered that maybe rotting in bed is bad for your mental health? is it perhaps possible to rot on the sofa instead, with some lights on and a cup of tea?", "the Simpsons", "your friends are literally the best medicine for when your brain gets like this, and NO THEY DON'T HATE YOU"
