Saturday, October 11, was the World Mental Health Day, and this year has been particularly rough for a lot of people. But, this shouldn’t be a reason for us to not focus on ourselves.

Self-love doesn't come easy for everyone. Some days, it feels like everything is doing well—you can look at yourself in front of the mirror without hesitation, or you can take a photo of yourself and upload it online because you are proud. And sometimes, things get a little heavier and draining—and all that you just need is a little reminder from your friends, family, and yes, even from your favorite artists, to help you get up and continue with your journey to self-acceptance.

And to remind you that you're worthy, these 10 songs will make you realize what you see in the mirror when you're feeling down are all wrong.

My Future by Billie Eilish

My Future is a song by an 18 year old Grammy Award winner American singer Billie Eilish, who’s also already tagged as “Queen of Sad Electropop” at the young age.

Truth Hurts by Lizzo

Truth Hurts topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for seven weeks on September last year. With an intro like, "I just took a DNA test, turns out I'm 100% that b*tch," the song reminds you that breakups happen for a reason, bad things happen, and you can still carry on  because you are a 100% bad b*tch.

Still Have Me by Demi Lovato

Demi Lovato is known to have been releasing self-empowering songs in the likes of “Give Your Heart A Break”, “Warrior”, and “I Love Me.” Still Have Me is a song released after her break up with her fiancé. “I don't have much but at least I still have me… And that's all I need”

Me Too by Meghan Trainor

Just like All About That Base, Trainor’s Me Too promotes body positivity and self-appreciation. Its lyrics urge listeners to be more contented and confident of themselves. With its upbeat music, it can really uplift someone doubting themselves. “And I can’t help loving myself, and I don’t need nobody else. If I was you, I’d wanna be me too.”

Tahanan by Munimuni

Tahanan is perfect for uplifting and comforting those people who are hurting and going through a lot. The song tells us that everything has its end—even our own struggles. Tahanan is a song you would want to hear when you feel like bad times won’t cease. “Hanggang dito na lamang ang iyong mga luha. Tama na, tahan na.”

I understand that there are days that you find yourself really hard to love and accept—that you can’t fathom the reason of your existence. But I hope that one day, you would get to realize that you are worth much more than what your mind demeans you into thinking— that one day, you will finally get to fully embrace yourself.
