make sure you’re taking care of yourself, first. you know when you’re in an airplane, they always play some video telling you that, in the event of a crash, always put your air mask on first before helping those around you. and i always think, what if there is a child? shouldn’t i help the child first? they need me to put their mask on for them, they can’t do it by themselves. but the thing is, you can only help someone else get their mask on if you’re conscious. if you don’t put your mask on first, you might pass out helping them get on theirs. then, they wont be able to help you. or worse, you could faint before they have it on right and now you’re both screwed. now, imagine this mask is mental health. you have to make sure you’re okay before helping everyone else around you.
