It's #TimeToTalk day today. 3 in 5 of us say the cost of living crisis has impacted our mental health, but a third never make space to talk about it. Today is a great day to start changing that
Great to be working with @s0methingsays on this really important campaign. The veterans involved are amazing, and showing how important it is for veterans to reach out and ask for help.
On average, veterans take more than a decade to get help with their mental health.
We worked with @seemescotland to empower veterans to seek help should they need it and challenge the stigma and discrimination they face.
Through the campaign 5 veterans share their story. 1/4

Two-thirds of young Scots think that young people are dismissed by adults when they try to speak about their mental health, often saying they're 'too young' 💬
With #FeelsFM, we’re giving you the chance to have your say – and fight the stigma.
