Amongst the trials of everyday life and stressful moments, don't forget to look up.

The new series delves deep into the challenges faced by today's youth, highlighting combined issues such as peer pressure, online influences, and the impact of toxic masculinity.

It is crucial to recognise these factors and offer support to adolescents and young people navigating this tricky phase. Alongside developing digital literacy, mentoring, and support groups, therapy can help to open up important conversations about emotions, online content, and fostering healthy relationships.

Do any of these quotes from the series resonate with you? How often do you hear or see these thoughts play out in everyday life.

Break the mold!

Like plastic figurines, we're often molded to fit within society's expectations. Dress this way. Act that way. Think like everyone else.

It can be tiring presenting a perfectly packaged exterior 24/7!

Therapy can help us to break the mold, remember who we are beneath the surface, and reveal our beautiful individuality.

In a society where men are raised to battle, to dominate, to assert strength, the only thing we should be fighting is the narrative around masculinity.

Your fears are mental barriers..they feel very real, but they're just internal thoughts.

A growth mindset means recognising that limitations born out of fear are challenges that you can overcome. Your doubts don't have to define your story.

Don't wait for someone else to tell you you can.

Therapist's Thoughts

With International Women's Day upon us, we asked our therapists how they think therapy might unintentionally reinforce gender inequality, and what needs to be done to dismantle these barriers.

Here are some of the extracts from a dynamic and interesting conversation that unravelled...

Be more self-ish.

When you prioritise your well-being, you have more to give, more to share, and more to love.

It's not about being self-centered, it's about being centered in yourself.

What is psychological junk food?

​We coined the phrase to describe and think about the items we indulge in that give us that immediate and satisfying psychological hit!
​That gratifying sensation may make us feel great for a short while, but for a lot of us, if we do it for too long, we may regret or feel bad about our choices or even ourselves. And to prevent that crash from happening, we just keep repeating the cycle.

​What counts as psychological junk food and why do we do it?

​Well, anything that is specifically used to distract us from our emotions, feelings or the present moment for a prolonged time.

​This may include, but is not limited to, continuous use of social media or internet use, excessive physical exercising, wanting to be with another person or groups of people all the time, repeat drugs and alcohol, long working hours etc...

​Similar to physical junk food, excessive use can cause dependency, cravings and without it, it may impact our mental health and involve increased anxious feelings, low moods, depression, insomnia, isolation and more.

As we all know, a balanced (emotional) diet leaves us feeling good.

​What's your psychological junk food?

Sometimes we deal with things the best way we know.
​The only way we know.

​It's okay to ask for more ways, different ways - or better ways of dealing with things.

​Seek support. Seek change.
