An Acrostic Poem for Mental Health Awareness Week 15-23 May 2023 – Anxiety

Another sleepless night

Nausea sweeping through me

Xanax sitting untouched on the nightstand

I will beat this

Every movement’s an effort

Teeth even ache in my jaws

Yesterday still torturing my mind

Everyone has mental health, the same way, everyone has physical health and like your physical health, sometimes its in better shape than others. It’s ok not to be ok.
