Social Connection: The Most Overlooked Part of Healthy Aging🤝🏽
Beyond building strength, #fun drills like Ball Toss to an empty bin ⚽️ are designed to spark camaraderie, relieve stress, and support #mentalhealth.
😅 Watch the rockstars of my SPARTA Strength Class (Ages 65–95) at the Milano Senior Center in Melrose, MA show that it’s about more than just movement—it’s about laughter, connection, and #community.🎉

With access to mental health care stretched thin in Ghana, families often turn instead to forest "prayer camps" and spiritual healers, driven by beliefs mental illness is rooted in curses, witchcraft or possession. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/20/world/society/ghana-mentally-ill-prayer-care/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #society #ghana #mentalhealth #africa

But despite this fucking insanity, they still won't put into motion the procedures for when their President is mentally incapable of performing the job.

Diese Zahlen lassen mich momentan nicht los.
Vor ein paar Tagen war ich auf dem Weg vom Geburtstag meiner besten Freundin nach Hause. In mir noch die Wärme der Atmosphäre der Bar, in der wir feierten. Doch auf dem Heimweg durch diese kalte, stille Winternacht schoben sich andere Gedanken in den Vordergrund.⬇️

![Das Bild ist ein quadratisches Sharepic mit einem kräftigen, dunkelroten Hintergrund. Im Zentrum des Bildes befindet sich eine große, schwarze Trauerschleife. Der Text ist in weißer, serifenloser Schrift oberhalb und unterhalb der Schleife platziert.
Der Text lautet: „198 Menschen pro Woche begehen Suizid, mindestens 5 davon sind Personen, die trans sind. Diese Statistik ist ein Mahnmal gegen das Patriarchat. Der Hass, der online und offline gesät wird, trifft jene am härtesten, die sich den normativen Zwängen widersetzen.
[Symbol der Trauerschleife]
Wir kennen nicht immer das „Warum“, aber wir kennen die Strukturen: Angst, Isolation und Gewalt. Wir müssen eine Gesellschaft schaffen, in der es keinen Mut erfordert, eine Person zu sein, die trans ist, sondern eine sichere Realität ist. Hass tötet.“](https://media.troet.cafe/troet.cafe/media_attachments/files/115/923/051/264/957/958/original/46e1837d047d8ef0.png)

Today, I take 11 years of sobriety from alcohol. It has been an incredibly chaotic, demanding, and ultimately trying decade, a period that has tested my will and strength. Without support from my family and friends, I wouldn't have made it this far. So to all of you who have supported me, you have my deepest thanks. #RecoveryPosse #SoberLife #ODAAT #MentalHealth

I’ve been in dark places recently. I didn’t know if I was gonna make it through the holidays. Lots of depression, anxiety, and drinking.
Man, did I need a lift. And I got it.
My lovely friend @resl visited us in Portland. We met for vegan food and uplifting conversation. She also brought her rad friend @darius who I met for the first time at lunch. We have tons in common and I’m grateful she introduced us.
What a gift. This was a good day. ❤️

Can anyone recommend any good courses in peer support? I did a training decades ago when I worked on an LGBTQI crisis line, but I want a refresher and something formal I can put on my CV. Finding a course that is not scammy is hard!

Hi everyone, we all know Blue Monday is marketing nonsense, especially on sunny days like I'm lucky enough to have here in Reading. But there are days when we feel blue and it's harder to feel positive and upbeat. Time for Kindness are here on these tough days to help you feel just a bit more positive. Kindness to self matters too, take care of yourself.

Your expedited compassionate relief response would be ever so greatly appreciated right now;
