Thanks to Humber Valley United Church volunteers who have launched more than 30 virtual programs on Zoom for #seniors 55-plus during the pandemic. “This has been a Godsend for me. This 55+ program and Zoom have become my new best friends.” @hvunitedchurch https://t.co/TQBByTMFIU
#BellLetsTalk day is a good excuse to share some of my favourite #MentalHealth stories from the @globeandmail
(I will start with a recent video and add to this thread throughout the day)
Maintaining our mental health in the midst of a pandemic

Just talking to someone helps, but my therapist has taught me so many things to attack the anxiety and depression that have consumed parts of my life. She's helping me train my brain to reframe and challenge the thoughts, fears and perceptions that trigger me. #BellLetsTalk
Highlighting the importance of #family (and my kid’s art) on #BellLetsTalk Day. Whether it’s one you were born into, one you have chosen, or one who picked you, #family support is important. Speak to loved ones about how you are feeling: good or bad. We are stronger together.
This past year for me was incredibly challenging. Being praised for “speaking up” but as a Black woman in media there’s this level of anxiety I truly wish on no one. Fear. Hate mail. Vile tweets. Feeling like an only at times.Eventually it chips away at you. #BellLetsTalk
At the #MusicalRide, it's crucial we work together as a team both in and out of the riding arena. Whether it's our work or our personal lives, we're here for each other, our colleagues and our friends. We support #MentalHealth. #BellLetsTalk
Thank you @CEMHW_CESMMT for championing #mentalhealth for all #GC employees around Canada to ensure that supports are available to those who need them. Your actions make a difference today and every day. #BellLetsTalk
#BellLetsTalk about marginalized communities and how they are very much a part of the conversation surrounding mental health too despite the lack of visibility.
Caring for one another is so important, now more than ever. Thank you Premier @BrianPallister for your encouraging words this #BellLetsTalk Day, we appreciate your support.
Thank you, Your Worship @Mayor_Bowman for leading the conversation in #Winnipeg and reminding us that talking about #mentalhealth makes a difference, today and every day. Now more than ever, every action counts #BellLetsTalk
