My mother and I sit down and open the channel of communication! We discuss, labels, diagnoses and our opinions on how to talk about mental health in a useful way. We hope you find this interesting, maybe helpful or just a nice way to spend 50 minutes. This is my first try and so I know we go very off topic and we ramble a lot but I’m getting more structure sorted :)
If you are struggling with your mental health here are some ways to get some support:
Samaritians 116 123
Young Minds text service: YM to 85258
Childline 0800 1111
(can also anonymously write to Sam through childline who will give advice or read letters others have sent in)
Note: We are not mental health professionals and so a lot of this is opinion based. If you don't like it then don't listen to it, simple as.
