#ItsOKtoBeNotOK is a hashtag inspired by Winnie the Pooh, the loss of a beloved mother, and numerous high-profile suicides which spotlight the seriousness of mental illness. #ItsOKtoBeNotOK was created by Melanie Hollands and Sandy Matthew's, both of Boston, MA.

A story based on my chestnut thoroughbred horse Aeolian (aka Ollie).

#ItsOKtoBeNotOK is a hashtag and status update to help people anywhere, around the world, who suffer from depression, grief, or who are in distress to reach out for help so friends and strangers can check in with each other to offer support and lighten the emotional burden we all go through occasionally. #ItsOKtoBeNotOK (and also #ImNotOK) was inspired by Winnie the Pooh and Piglet, the recent loss of a beloved mother, and several high profile suicides. It was jointly created by Melanie Hollands and Sandy Matthews, both of Boston, MA.

Some days we all feel overwhelmed and not OK. This is OK. Be kind to yourself. Reach out. Or just tell yourself it's OK to feel not very OK. Dont pressure yourself. This passes Created by Melanie Hollands and Sandra Matthews of Boston, MA.

Be good to yourself. Treat yourself well. Take it easy sometimes.

Don't beat yourself up. Cut yourself a break.
