After my relatively negative experience with a mobile mental health service I had an idea of my own. Especially after a friend recently opened up about his challenges with mental health. Since it was December 1st I decided to create my own Whatsapp advent calendar*.
Using Whatsapp’s ‘broadcast list’ feature, I sent 16 friends of mine the first post. I only chose 16, because I was worried that more would be too difficult to handle.
Here are the messages I have sent so far.
December 1st:
December 2nd:
Now everyday until the 24th I will come up with a new positive post every day. My plan is for the messages to share happiness, boost confidence and reduce isolation. Giving tips and positive thoughts without being preachy!
This is an experiment. So I will see how the next few weeks go and maybe I could broaden it at a later stage! Learnings to follow!
