Benjamin Franklin once stated, “When the well is dry, we know the worth of water.” This quote can be applied to mental health as well. Sometimes we don’t recognize what good shape our brains were in until we’re depressed or anxious. Then we long for the days when our daily routines weren’t disrupted by mental issues. The well is dry, and we need to be replenished. That’s where a professional therapist can help.
