If you've said "I'm fine" lately and meant something else entirely, this one's for you.

You're not the only one feeling this way. We asked our therapists what they're hearing right now, and the same things keep coming up. Here's what they want you to know:

--

Melissa Hummelt, LMHC

Staying busy isn't the same as feeling better. Scrolling, overworking, filling every hour—it numbs the stress, but it doesn't resolve it. Regulation is a practice, not a personality trait. The goal isn't to be calm all the time. It's to notice where you are and gently find your way back.

--

Sreela Roy-Greene, PhD, LMHC

This moment feels heavy for a lot of people. It's natural to feel overwhelmed even when you can't point to one specific reason. You're not alone in it, and taking care of yourself is how you can show up for everyone else too.

--

Sarah Close, LPC

Collective stress is real. What's happening in the world lands in your body even when it's not directly affecting your life. Focus on what you can control. Let go of what you can't. That doesn’t mean you’re giving up, you’re just protecting your energy.

--

The things you haven't said out loud? Other people are carrying them too.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is show someone they're not alone.

We’reWith You, out loud.

What does empowerment actually look like?

We asked our therapists, and here’s what they shared:

"Making daily decisions without needing reassurance or permission." - Ryan Kunz, LMSW

"Asking for help, especially when it's hard. That's empowerment." - Sreela Roy-Greene, PhD, LMHC

"Feeling empowered can feel like freedom. The freedom to choose, to change your mind, to take up space." - Melissa Hummelt, LPC

--

It always leads back to you. The choices you make. How you make them. Who you make them for.

You've spent a long time showing up for everyone else. This is what showing up for yourself looks like.

We’re With You, on your terms.

That "off" feeling you can't quite explain? It might be your brain telling you something.

Cognitive overload doesn't always look like a breakdown. Sometimes it looks like rereading the same email four times. Or forgetting why you walked into a room. Or starting everything and finishing nothing.

You're not lazy. Your brain is full.

You don't have to have the words just yet; we’ll be With You while you find them.

What’s the difference between toxic positivity and self-love?

@Lizzobeeating talks about self-love that isn’t always perfect, but keeps you true to yourself through change.

I’ve been going through a transition phase of my life which at times can be mentally challenging.

I’ve navigated breakups, moving abroad and starting new businesses.

Thankfully, I havent had to do it alone, having my therapist through BetterHelp keeps me on the right track and helps me through the journey. #ad #betterhelppartner

Anyone could listen to her. But no one knew what to say.

That’s the difference between being heard and being understood. And for her, therapy was the first place that felt like both. 🫂

Moms spend so much time caring for everyone else. This Mental Health Awareness Month, every assist is a reminder that moms need support too.

BetterHelp is partnering with the Las Vegas Aces, New York Liberty, and Dallas Wings to donate 10 hours of therapy for every assist made this May—helping more moms access care when they need it most.

From tip-off through the end of the month, we’ll be tracking every assist in real time—turning support on the court into support for moms everywhere. As of today, we’ve recorded 118 assists and are committed to donating 1180 hours of therapy.

Because no mom should have to carry the mental load of motherhood alone.

Tag a mom who could use someone in her corner. Link in bio to learn more and claim one month of free therapy.

Open Up To Me.

You have to be selfish in order to be selfless.

Do you agree?
