If you suffer with mental health issues, the most important thing to remember is that you are not alone and that there is support out there.

 

Talking about your problems is one of the best things to do. Too many people 

feel ashamed or isolated because they have a mental health problem, but this

is starting to change. There is support available any time of the day or night. 

​

If you're experiencing mental health problems or need support, there are lots of places you can go to for help.
