When someone asks you how you are, what do you say? Do you brush off your emotions and simply say: “I’m fine”? It may feel difficult to talk to others about what you’re going through because you’re tired, nervous, or don’t know quite how to explain what you’re feeling.

In this video, we want you to know that it’s okay to say: “I’m not fine” when you’re feeling low. For some, it may be hard to recognize they feel this way. So, to help you recognize what you’re feeling, here are seven signs you’re not actually ‘fine’. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to a mental health professional!
