There is no such thing as a mental health diet. At least not that we know of.🤷🏻♀️ However an impressive body of evidence exists in support of diets rich in fruits and vegetables, as well as low in sugar and saturated fat.
Basically foods that help fight inflammation in the body may also be beneficial for our mental health.👍🏾
However, the role that foods play in individual’s mental health will most likely depend on previous dietary experiences and maternal diet during and prior to pregnancy as well as stress experience.
What is recommended by professionals is that we "start paying attention to how eating different foods makes us feel - not just in the moment, but the next day" (Eva Selhub MD, Nutritional psychiatry), and make our dietary changes from there.
I’d also recommend you to try not to stress about food too much, because stress plays an important (most likely even more important) role in our mental health. Be supportive of yourself. Do your best. Focus on adding healthy foods to your plate, rather than taking out what you really enjoy, take care of your sleep and manage your stress levels. Everything else will fall into place when it’s time.🧘🏾♀️

For those of you who are new to my page, welcome, my name is Trenye Black, I am a military wife and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC).
I started this page because I wanted to share my journey with you as a military wife but also to provide knowledge and support for those of you who are struggling with mental health issues. I know from my own experience how challenging it is to wait those long months for your partner, at the same time trying to tackle daily tasks, family life, work and mental health.🤯
What has helped me a lot was finding my purpose in life, which was pursuing my career as a Counselor and becoming the best mom I could be for my children.
You should always be working on yourself and your goals. And hopefully, your partner is doing the same. Find a hobby, go to school, meet new people. Engage in your life, make the best of your situation, and seek out your purpose.✨
As I have always stated, you are strong and capable of doing far more than you imagine if the circumstances are important to you.💪🏾At the end of the day, you have to figure out what’s worth waiting and working for.💛💙
