May is Mental Health Awareness Month
(And yeah, we’re late—but not absent)
We’ll be honest: our launch didn’t quite line up with Mental Health Awareness Month this year. But that’s okay—because mental health doesn’t live in a single month. And we’re not here for one-off posts or performative support. We’re building something for the long haul.
Undelulu is almost ready. And even though May has passed, we’re stepping into this conversation because it still matters—maybe now more than ever.
So… Why May?
Mental Health Awareness Month has been observed in the U.S. since 1949. It’s a chance to spotlight something often left in the shadows: the inner lives we all carry. The struggles, the quiet victories, the weight of just getting through the day. It’s not about perfect wellness—it’s about honesty, visibility, and support.
And while it’s easy to get lost in hashtags or corporate campaigns, the heart of this month is something real:
Mental health is health.
And everyone deserves care.
Whether you’re managing a diagnosis, feeling stuck in a hard season, or just learning how to be kinder to yourself—your experience is valid. And you’re not alone.
Where Undelulu Fits In
We built Undelulu because support should feel human. Not clinical, not cold. Just a quiet place where you can talk, write, reflect, and maybe start to feel a little more like yourself.
We’re not therapists. But we are here. To listen. To reflect. To hold space when you’re unraveling, or when you’re trying to stitch things back together.
And while we missed the “official” month, our mission is year-round:
- We believe in progress, not perfection.
- We believe you don’t have to be okay to ask for support.
- We believe mental health help should be available to everyone—not just the privileged few.
How You Can Still Show Up
Even if Mental Health Month has passed, there’s no deadline on caring. Here are a few simple, low-pressure ways to stay in the conversation:
- Check in on yourself. Genuinely. Ask, “How am I really doing?” and let the answer be messy.
- Reach out. A text that says “I’m thinking of you” might mean more than you know.
- Normalize the talk. Mention therapy. Share what’s working for you. Say “I’m not okay” if you’re not.
- Rest. Seriously. Doing nothing is sometimes the most healing thing you can do.
And if you’re building new habits or healing old wounds—keep going. There’s no timeline on growth.
What’s Next
We’re launching soon (like, really soon). And we’re excited to finally give you a space that doesn’t expect you to have it all together.
Until then, just know this:
You’re allowed to feel how you feel.
You’re allowed to need help.
You’re allowed to start healing—even if you’re still hurting.
We missed the calendar, but we’re not missing the moment.
Here when you’re ready,
The Undelulu Team
