If you resonate with the post below, then you're certainly not alone! If it's becoming a bigger problem than you can manage, we're here every Monday 6pm to 9pm to help lighten the load and the mood. Just drop in for a chat over a cuppa, some mindful activities to help your thoughts feelers overwhelming, and some games to giggle over. Laughter is a great tonic!
This year, for on 10th October the Mental Health Foundation are focussing on how overwhelming the world feels right now. A relentless cycle of negative news is taking its toll on all of our mental health and may be resulting in symptoms of chronic stress. Couple that with difficult personal situations and things can get bad pretty quickly.
You can find more info at this link, including some of the symptoms of chronic stress - and their not just emotional. Aches and pains? Difficulty sleeping? Digestive problems? All of these can be linked to stress. https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/explore-mental-health/articles/overwhelm-when-global-events-and-relentless-bad-news-become-too-much
