Simply listening can be enough without trying to “fix” someone. Acknowledging someone’s experience can be better than unsolicited advice. It’s up to us to help change these negative reactions to positive ones. Mental Illness Awareness Week: Let's fight the stigma! #MIAW18 #thingspeoplesaidaboutmymentalillness #mentalhealth

Mental health should be as important as physical health. A new poll exposes the extent of the mental health crisis in Britain according to which "the most common catalyst for mental health issues is work – cited by 51% – closely followed by family (45%), health (37%) and finance (33%)...It is commonly believed that a quarter of the population has suffered a mental health problem". #mentalhealth #depression #stress

“Investing in the resilience of young people is everybody’s business.” One in ten young people in England will experience poor mental health. According to a recent study the key to dealing with this challenge is by building resilience in our young population--providing the tools to manage stress, negativity and adversity in life early on. The importance of accessible mental health services cannot be overstated.

In our effort to combat our personal demons, mind, body and soul should be concurrently taken care of, if possible. In addition to therapy, exercise, meditation and nutrition can greatly help recovery. Needless to say, not a one-size-fits-all solution but for those veterans, yoga was a means to deal with depression and feel better not only physically but mentally as well. #mentalhealth #exercise #veterans #holisticapproach #depression

The vicious feedback loops among financial, physical and mental health can have detrimental effects; it is not a good idea to bury your head in the sand and let time pass. Take action by either speaking to individuals or organisations who can help you. #mentalhealth

A 2015 US study indicates ‘an underlying relationship between entrepreneurship and many of the affective, cognitive, and behavioural differences associated with mental health conditions’. Almost half of entrepreneurs are prone to various mental health issues. It is time to tackle mental wellbeing and talk openly and unabashedly about mental health. #mentalhealth #entrepreneurship

Hooked on gaming? A very real problem got recognised as the World Health Organization (WHO) announced yesterday that gaming addiction qualifies as a mental health disorder. An increasing number of people get hooked on gaming and lose control of their lives. Players can become so hopelessly addicted that they may eventually be deprived of their family, their friends, their job and more. Teenagers are much more vulnerable; evidence suggests that extensive playing of video games can affect the development of their brain. It is never too late to take care of your health! #gaming #WHO #videogames #addictions #mentalhealth

We are in the midst of Men’s Health Week (June 11-17) which coincides with Diabetes Awareness Week, and on that occasion, we are reminded how vulnerable men are to a variety of health issues, from diabetes and alcohol addiction to suicide.
It is important that men become aware of their health issues and encouraged into doing something about it as they are less likely to follow up on warning symptoms than women. It is never late to take care of your mental and physical health...! #menshealthweek

Only a few days after Kate Spade, Anthony Bourdain’s passing is added to the increasing suicide numbers in both the US and UK. According to the Office for National Statistics, the suicide rate for men in the UK has increased significantly since 2007. It is deeply troubling, and we need to talk more about mental health—early intervention is the key. It is about time that we remove the stigma from depression, anxiety and addictions. #depression #suicide #addictions #anxiety

Kate Spade’s suicide is a stark reminder that wealth and success do not bring happiness or peace of mind in someone’s life. Only in England, 1 in 4 people experience mental health problems each year according to NHS figures. Remember that even in the darkest of times, you are not alone. #suicideprevention #mentalhealth
