Building Happiness: Thorns and All is a space for connection, growth, and shared experiences. While we offer insights, resources, and reflections rooted in mental well-being, this platform is not a substitute for therapy, professional mental health care, or crisis support.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, unsafe, or at risk of harm to yourself or others, we urge you to seek immediate support. Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or mental health professional. You can also contact a local crisis hotline or emergency service for immediate assistance.

We honor the wisdom and resilience that lives within you and your community. While our resources are crafted with care, they are not intended to diagnose, treat, or replace individualized mental health care. Your healing journey is unique, and we encourage you to connect with trusted professionals and supportive networks as you navigate it.

You are not alone. There is strength in reaching out, and you deserve support that meets you where you are.
