It’s stress awareness day. Would you say that you are stressed? Most people feel stressed at some time or another. Figures from the Mental Health Foundation say that 74% of people in the UK have felt stressed and unable to cope in the past year.

When your teaching MHFA @Stocktoncollege and IT come in set your computer up with “Hazel” the rescue grey hound, how gawgeous😀.

“I often wonder with immense sadness, regret and guilt if he would still be alive if instead of asking what I could do to help, I had simply asked the question ‘are you thinking of killing yourself?'“

Hope is something that seems out of reach for people who are suicidal. The message of this year’s World Suicide Prevention Day is hopeful. This year is ‘Creating Hope Through Action.’ Each one of us can offer help and hope to someone who is struggling.

Over 16 months since I have trained in the classroom. Today I packed and dusted off my reliable suite case. Very daunting, my little ‘impostor syndrome fairy’ is flying around, but I’m excited. Stockton college here I come, wish me luck 😀

It’s ‘Mental Health Awareness Week’ and my latest blog looks at the effects of back to work anxiety, impostor syndrome, and a lack of work/life balance on mental wellbeing.

Being next to water always helps me calm my thoughts. When the intrusive thoughts come along, I can always dip my toe in the freezing cold water to ground me 😀 have you spent some time this week being #mindful #StressAwarenessMonth

The full impact of the Coronavirus pandemic on mental health is yet to be seen, but if you’re a betting person, you would probably put money on the fact that the statistics are going to be difficult reading.
