1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: Mental health check up for today, and today is about 2 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: being true to what we set out to do in 3 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: the first place. And let me explain, I've actually been 4 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: struggling more in the last month and I have in 5 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,440 Speaker 1: a while because I've been going through some different decisions 6 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: I've had to make, so I haven't had a lot 7 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: of stability and it's kind of put me in a 8 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 1: difficult situation for myself. And then what I did was 9 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: I started saying to myself, Ah, well, Jay, you gotta 10 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: deal with this on your own. You want to. You 11 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: don't want to bother people with this all the time. 12 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,160 Speaker 1: You're always in the gray, and uh, you know whether 13 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: it's the gray or blue, and that's just not the 14 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: right way to think, the proper way to think. And 15 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: the more you all come up to me and tell 16 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: me how much I've impacted you by talking about this, 17 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: the more it reminds me. No, I've got to continue 18 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: to talk about it. I keep telling everybody we gotta 19 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: talk about it and open up and talk about it. 20 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: But I'm sure you all a lot of you out 21 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: there ever the same similar thing. When we're going through 22 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: the gray so much that we act like we don't 23 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: want to bother people if we're always in the gray, 24 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: and that's not my authentic way of thinking, because nobody 25 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: has told me I've bothered them. In fact, it's been 26 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: the other way. Everybody has been like, please open up 27 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: for us, please talk about it more. Please. So you 28 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 1: know a lot of times when you have depression anxiety, 29 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: you make up these stories in your own head, and 30 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: that's one of the ones I've made up that Well, 31 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: people don't don't want to just hear about this constantly 32 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: from me, when in fact people actually do because they 33 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: want to be there for you, but also they want 34 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: to feel a lot less alone. So something I've worked 35 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: through recently, and with that, I guess I am going 36 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: from more of the gray to the blue. Just having 37 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: these doing these checkens with you all help me a 38 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: lot more to go from the gray to the blue. 39 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: So um in the end, listen, let's be authentic too. 40 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: If we were sitting out here to talk about this more, 41 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: let's not let the roommates in our head tell us 42 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: that we're being a pain in the butt and nobody 43 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: wants to hear it, because the truth is, we've got 44 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: to open up to each other a lot more. So 45 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: I'm pretty proud of myself that I was able to 46 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: work through this and work through this way of thinking. 47 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: And now it's just gonna be a quick reminder for myself. 48 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 1: Thank you, love you all.
