solofounder89··on Managing mental health while running a startup
I exercise, meditate, eat mostly healthy during the week, sleep 8 hrs, and no caffeine in afternoons on most days.

My mental health is still not great. I couldn't imagine where it would be if I didn't do these things.

I've recently started therapy and I can definitely say it's starting to help. As a founder, I'm simply burnt out of having to make so many important decisions.

One of the most helpful things about therapy for me is being able to vent unfiltered and letting go of the responsibility to decide what is going on with me and what to do next about it. Very freeing to be vulnerable and not have to be the one on top making the final decisions for a moment.
