When struggling with your mental health or even just trying to get over a rough day, you have to look at the little wins in life. One thing that always boosts my mood is some good food — something that Chick-fil-A definitely has. So, on a day when you're feeling down in the dumps, treat yourself to your favorite item from Chick-fil-A... just hope it isn't a Sunday!

Here are 11 instances where Chick-fil-A aided my mental health:

1. Having a bad day?

Good thing Chick-fil-A doesn't just serve chicken, but also has some great ice cream selections.

2. Want to do shots but aren't in the mental state to get drunk?

Chick-fil-A sauce it is. Their ranch is also a great sauce. (I'm only half joking here, though I've never done it).

3. Feeling under-appreciated, needy, or sad?

Good thing Chick-fil-A employees are always incredibly nice, and their "my pleasures" sometimes are what you need to hear to get you through the day.

4. Lost faith in humanity?

Just think about the story where a baby was born in a Chick-fil-A bathroom and was blessed with free food for life and guaranteed a job when she becomes of age.

5. Running low on cash and need a quick meal?

Good thing you've been saving up your points on your Chick-fil-A app.

6. Dreading going to an event because you are mentally exhausted?

Thank the Chick-fil-A gods that the event just so happened to be catered by them, taking some of the weight of social anxiety off your shoulders.

7. Overworked and don't feel like cooking even though you are trying to be healthy?

Chick-fil-A has some healthy options for that.

8. Insecure about your overuse of puns?

No one can make fun of you because their favorite restaurant's name is one big pun. Chicken fillet? Grade A food? Double pun.

9. Lack of motivation and inspiration?

Check out Chick-fil-A's blog, https://thechickenwire.chick-fil-a.com, for some good stories, recipes, and dining options.

10. Still looking for a reason to embrace "new year, new you?"

The sauce packings at Chick-fil-A changed, but they still have the same amazing tastes. Just because you want to change something on the outside doesn't make yiu lose any personal value.

11. Not certain how to express yourself?

Buy some Chick-fil-A merch and share your passion via your fashion.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
