It’s always good to talk
|Be courageous and talk.
Many in our community silently suffer with anxiety, low mood and depression.
We have been conditioned to recognise and show empathy to people who display a physical injury or disability.
In the past we were led to believe that poor mental health or anxiety was a sign of weakness however the opposite is in reality true.
While experiencing a period of poor mental health or anxiety we feel low and weak, but our strength comes from reaching you.
We need to speak, we need to let others know that it the first step to recovery.
With support and friends on the journey with us we can and we will beat both the stigma of mental health and empower those who feel isolated and alone to begin to live their lives again.
When in a bad place it can seem the road is too long but with the support of friends that rad will be easier to walk.
Often it can be easier to speak to someone you do not know initially, and that is where, groups like The Samaritans, Aware and Pieta House come in. They are a friendly voice on the other end of the phone to listen and help you to find the confidence to take the next step to recovery.
Morning always comes after the night, and light and joy will come back into your life.
