Mental Health Awareness Week 2023
The Mental Health Foundation’s Mental Health Awareness Week is happening this week (15th to the 21st May 2023) and this year’s theme is Anxiety. Their hope is to kickstart a nationwide conversation about anxiety, encourage people to talk about their experiences and to share any helpful ideas about how they manage anxiety.
Anxiety is something everyone can experience from time to time and it can be triggered by any event or situation you may feel worried about. Anxiety is a normal feeling we get in response to a worry. Sometimes though, these anxious feelings can get out of control and become more of a problem if we don’t know how to cope with them. Dealing with anxiety can be extremely difficult, and sometimes debilitating.
