Big Sean has been coming through with the good messages lately, and just recently offered some words of encouragement to his fans during Mental Health Awareness month.

“To everybody stressed the fuck out or overwhelmed cause y’all busy… just remember, It’s much more stressful when things AREN’T happening versus stress bc they are,” Big Sean said. “Ok, back to work… but take care of you too [palms emoji][stars emoji].”

A number of Big Sean’s fans were extremely receptive of his uplifting message, with some even detailing how his tweet helped them in the heat of their mental health battle.

One user tweeted: “The way I’ve been struggling exactly with that and your words found me in perfect timing, thank you for that. God Bless you Sean [praying hands emoji][blue heart emoji] Take care of yourself, lots of love to you and your loved ones.”

Another user added: “i was on the verge of a panic attack all day and this is exactly what i needed to hear. i’ve always related to u and what u have to say.”

Weeks earlier, Big Sean heaped praise on Jhené Aiko during her set at Lovers & Friends festival in Las Vegas.

While performing their track “I Know” together, Sean took a moment to pay tribute to his girlfriend’s sacrifices as a working mother. According to the Detroit native, she has become so immersed in motherhood that being on stage is even harder for her.

“It took her so much to get up on this stage, because she’s so hands-on with him,” he said of Aiko and their son Noah. “She’s so nurturing.”

He continued: “She really nurtures and takes care of this baby and it took a lot for her to get up on stage.”
