Mental Health

Mental health problems are extremely common. It is thought that about 1 in 4 people will experience them at some time in their lives. Problems can vary in severity from mild issues that do not impact on your life and can be overcome by the things you do, through to a severe problem requiring specialist help.

The mental health charity MIND produces some excellent online resources that explain about the different types of mental ill-health, and what treatments are available, as well as guidance on what you can do to help yourself. The link below takes you to the website.
