The Hidden Reason Mental Health Advice Doesn’t Work for Everyone

Of you were to go to YouTube right now and search up mental health advice you will see the same advice most likely, they tell you to meditate, gratitude journal, exercise, have a positive mindset and etc.

That stuff is great yes, and I recommend everyone to do those daily practices.

But the reason why it does not work for everyone, that is what I want to tell you with this post.

The reason why is, this stuff is just surface level advice, of you have a deeper issue that still is left unhealed, then the surface level advice fails to work.

It’s like turning up the music to ignore a fire alarm.

Meditation, gym, gratitude.

All useful.

But if the alarm keeps ringing, the problem isn’t the volume.

It’s the fire.

Unhealed trauma is the fire.

Surface-level advice just turns the dial.

And the big deeper reason that I find very commonly to be the case is unhealed trauma.

Unless these people fix the deeper problem which is their unhealed trauma then the advice will not work…

So let this be a reminder to you in your mental health journey, fix the deeper problem first, surface level solutions come later.
