When should I seek mental health support?
Life is full of challenges. These challenges are often part of a rich, healthy life, but sometimes they can cause or trigger more serious wellbeing issues.
Sometimes we feel like we can deal with whatever comes our way, but sometimes it doesn’t feel like that at all.
It’s important to seek help when you need it, and check in on your mental wellbeing regularly.
Asking for help is often the bravest thing we can do.
It can be hard to know where to start, or even what you need. That’s why Qwell has a range of different ways you can find mental health support.
If you need to talk, our qualified mental health practitioners are here to listen to whatever is on your mind. Qwell also has articles, activities, podcasts, videos, journals to explore your feelings and useful content to help you learn about yourself and others. Our welcoming community is a judgement-free space to share with others who may understand how you feel and have valuable advice and insight.
No problem is too big or small, so whether you could use a friendly space to explore complex feelings, or just check-in on your mental wellbeing, Qwell is here to help.
