10 Inspirational Mental Health Quotes

My latest encounter with the black dog saw me reaching for a trusty source of comfort and reassurance; Stephen Fry’s “It Will Be Sunny One Day” letter to a fan who was struggling with depression. He writes:

“I've found that it's of some help to think of one's moods and feelings about the world as being similar to weather:

Here are some obvious things about the weather:

It's real.
You can't change it by wishing it away.
If it's dark and rainy it really is dark and rainy and you can't alter it.
It might be dark and rainy for two weeks in a row.

BUT

It will be sunny one day.
It isn't under one's control as to when the sun comes out, but come out it will.
One day.”

I find Stephen Fry’s words a helpful reminder that just like bad weather, this feeling will pass. There are lots of inspirational mental health quotes out there, but I wanted to know the ones that truly resonated with you so I asked the question on Instagram and pulled together your Top 10 Inspirational Mental Health Quotes.
