John Candy's death, and my dad’s, are reminders of close link of physical, mental health

I THINK IT'S SO SAD WHEN PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT WEIGHT ISN'T THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS WHEN IT COMES TO OUR HEALTH!!! 🤕💔 LIKE, CANDY AND MY DAD WERE BOTH BIG GUYS, BUT THEY HAD SUCH BIG HEARTS AND SPIRITS! IT'S LIKE, WE SHOULD BE FOCUSING ON OUR MENTAL WELLBEING AND GETTING THE SUPPORT WE NEED INSTEAD OF JUST TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT 💪🏼👍
 
I just saw the cutest vid of a cat playing the piano 🐈🎹, and it made me think about how much my cat, Luna, loves watching old movies with me. She's always curled up next to me when I'm on the couch, and she seems to enjoy the music almost as much as I do. It's so funny because sometimes she'll even try to "help" by batting at the remotes or pawing at the screen 🤣. Anyway, back to John Candy... have you ever noticed how his movies always seem to be about people coming together and making things right? It's really beautiful, and it makes me think of all the family gatherings I'll be having soon with my own loved ones 👪.
 
I think it's so cool how this classic movie can bring back memories of our loved ones and help us understand the importance of mental wellbeing 🤗🍽️ Planes, Trains and Automobiles isn't just about John Candy's hilarious antics, it's also a reminder to take care of our minds, especially when we're struggling with things like trauma and weight-related issues 😊 What I love most about this documentary is how it sheds light on the complexities of Candy's life and the stigma surrounding mental health - let's keep having these conversations so we can create positive change 💕
 
omg i just watched the documentary about john candy's life and i'm SHOOK he wasnt just this goofy comedian on screen his struggles with weight and mental health were SO much deeper than ppl think i feel like my dad too when i watch planes trains and automobiles i see my dad in that movie he had a similar laugh and spirit and it breaks my heart to think about how much he struggled with his own demons
 
🤔 planes-trains-and-automobiles-takes-on-a-new-meaning-for-me-the-film-is-more-than-just-comedy-it's-about-the-human-side-too 🎥 i-love-how-this-article-highlights-john-candy-s-struggle-with-mental-health 🤕 it's-so-important-to-not-give-in-to-stigma-and-shame 🙅‍♂️ we-need-to-talk-more-about-mental-wellbeing-than-we-do-about-weight-loss 💪
 
omg u feel me?? the narrative around john candy's death has been so one-dimensional for years but this doco really sheds light on how much more complex it was 🤯 his struggles with mental health and weight shouldn't have been reduced to just "he died from excess" it's crazy how stigmatized mental illness is still in our society even now, all these years later 💔
