At the end of each month, we review the bloggers and content creators that have been advocates for #mentalhealthawareness and posted under that tag. Don't be discouraged if you have written on #mentalhealthawareness and not recieved the badge - we wait til the next month begins before we put out a post just like this and award prizes. Sometimes it takes a week or so into the new month to find space to get a post out, hence why this is quite late and not published until Saturday 10th April!

Please consider voting for @arcange as a witness, as he's the one responsible for organising this excellent gamification on HIVE.

Whilst the badge is a small token of our acknowledgement of your work, we hope that the bigger reward of helping others who might be struggling, or the cathartic nature of exploring your own work with #mentalhealth might be motivation enough to write on this important topic. *Don't forget the award isn't automatic - we base it on effort, quality and contribution to the community, as well as excellence in your writing and post presentation.

Congratulations to who all won badges this month.

A small HIVE token of appreciation goes to @bulldogjoy. Her poetic reflection of losing friends in war and a marriage due to PTSD after military deployment is an emotive read:

You stay behind but your world turns grey.
You stay behind pretending everything is fine.
You stay behind knowing that few understand what you are going through.
You stay behind with guilt.
You stay behind broken.

Huge congratulations to @pavanjr who earned his fifth star this week! What an incredible effort - well done, and thanks for constantly shining light on #mentalhealthawareness.
