March 2022 Events - International Day of Reflection
Hi everyone, I hope you’re doing well :)
On March 23rd, the Depression Support Community will be celebrating International Day of Reflection!
Self-reflection is super important and a large part of self-awareness. Reflecting on ourselves can help us recognize our thoughts and feelings in a different perspective, and even help us find new or better ways to deal with challenges in our futures.
I am so excited to see you all participate in this event and to spend quality time discussing self-reflection!
Here’s a short summary of what reflection is, and we will be talking about it in more detail in another post coming soon:
Personal reflection is taking time out to evaluate your thoughts, emotions, desires and behaviors
Most people don’t practice self-reflection because they don’t know how to form the habit
-
Personal reflection helps us gain perspective, promotes understanding of our mind and body and helps us respond effectively amongst other benefits
Does this sound interesting to you? Tomorrow, we will be talking all about reflection, and by the end of this event, you should know a lot more about self-reflection and hopefully even start to practice it yourself!
This is the masterpost for the event, and it will be updated with links to fun ice-breakers, forum discussions, and group support discussions regarding the event! All text in blue is clickable. Here is our schedule:
- TEENS: join @MyNameIsNicole and @WarmLightXO at 12pm ET on March 24th
If you'd like to learn some more about self-reflection, feel free to read this (click me!) to learn more in the meantime!

@EmmaE
I have tried self-reflection before, it's quite liberating although it was hard at first (: <3
@MyNameIsNicole
that's lovely! i totally understand how it could be hard at first like most new things are, but i'm so glad to hear that it was liberating!
@MyNameIsNicole i agree
@ohhlittlemee yup
Hi! Always tried self reflection. For me it’s been eye opening. It isn’t always smooth and simple. At times it has been so raw that I’ve surprised myself of having the capabilities to analyze, accept and love everything that surfaces during the process. I am grateful for all the growth and healing that has come from it. I feel that for this process to work you must definitely be true with the realities we need to face. All is a work in progress and it doesn’t happen overnight. I promise, it does get better if you give it a real opportunity. Best of luck to everyone! Rooting for everyone’s success!
@elektra1717
hey hey!
this is so incredible, thank you so much for sharing with us! it makes me so happy to hear that self reflection has been eye opening and that it's helped you grow and heal. you're completely right - it's definitely important to be true with the realities we need to face for the self reflection process to work successfully! we're rooting for you too <3
@EmmaE
Hi, Emma,
2. If so, how did you like it? If not, is it something you'd be interested in trying?
