Since Mental Health Awareness Month is drawing to a close, Bored Panda thought it would be a good idea to put together something we all could take away from it and adapt to our everyday lives.
For that, we turned to the subreddit r/CoolGuides. Its 2.5 million members share plenty of useful charts on everything from understanding the complexity of our emotions to noticing if someone else is going through a rough patch. So continue scrolling to check out what pictures we ended up with.
Even if it prevents just one meltdown or provides only one extra smile, isn’t it still worth it?
