5/7 These mental health experts remind us that for the sake of our mental wellness we shouldn’t bury or hide our emotions. Let’s not forget that we’re on this road together and there is help. #GetReal #COVIDCoping #StrongerTogether

6/7 So as we move forward into the uncertain days ahead, don’t be afraid to speak up and talk if you are struggling with the weight of what you’re feeling. #GetReal #ApartNotAlone #COVIDCoping

7/7 Talking things out can help you and also help others who may be finding it difficult to voice their own struggles. We may still be apart physically, but by talking about how you’re feeling you’ll find you are not alone. #WeWillGetThroughThis #cavabienaller
