As we approach the last week of Mental Health Awareness Month, this is your reminder that Mental health is more than the absence of mental disorders. As defined by the World Health organization, mental health is a state of mental well-being that enables people to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities, learn well and work well, and contribute to their community. It is a key component of health and well-being that plays a significant role in our individual and collective ability to make decisions, build relationships and shape the world we live in. It is crucial to personal, community and socio-economic development. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #psychology

As we are still in Mental Health Awareness week I just wanted to share with you that we have a mental health awareness course. This course is e-learning and assessment so you can do it at your own pace and at home. On this course you will learn how to identify common misconceptions around mental health and also understand the stigma and often discrimination in relation to mental ill health. This is something we should talk about more and try to understand as it is ok not to feel or be ok… Learn and understand different mental health disorders so that you can recognise the signs of mental ill health in yourself and others. Be able to offer appropriate support with an awareness of where to signpost them to get help if needed.
