🌱 Let’s Talk About Dopamine 🌱

Dopamine is often called the “feel-good” chemical, but it’s actually much more than that. It plays a key role in:
✨ Motivation and focus
✨ Learning and memory
✨ Pleasure and reward
✨ Regulating movement and mood

When dopamine levels are balanced, it helps us feel motivated and energised. But when levels are low, people may experience:
⚡ Lack of motivation
⚡ Trouble concentrating
⚡ Fatigue
⚡ Changes in mood

💡 Healthy ways to support your dopamine system include:
• Getting regular movement and exercise 🏃‍♀️
• Prioritising sleep 😴
• Eating a balanced diet 🥦
• Celebrating small wins 🏆
• Practicing mindfulness or relaxation 🧘

Remember: dopamine isn’t about chasing constant “highs” — it’s about balance. 🌿

If you’re struggling with motivation or mood, you’re not alone. Reach out to a trusted friend, a GP, or a mental health professional. Our mental health care provides support 1-2-1 or in a group on a Thursday in Oakham, or Friday in Uppingham. No appointment needed! Just walk in ⭐️

⭐️ LONELINESS ⭐️

Loneliness isn’t always about being alone.
You can feel it in a crowded room, at a family gathering, or while scrolling through hundreds of online “friends.” It’s that quiet ache of disconnection—the sense that no one truly sees or understands you.

In the UK, research shows that 1 in 4 adults feel lonely some or all of the time. It can affect anyone, at any age, and it’s more than just an emotional state—it can impact mental health, physical well-being, and even life expectancy. Prolonged loneliness has been linked to higher risks of depression, anxiety, heart disease, and weakened immunity.

Why Loneliness Matters
• It’s as harmful to health as smoking 15 ci******es a day.
• It can drain self-esteem and hope.
• It often hides behind a smile—making it harder to spot.

Breaking the Silence

Loneliness thrives in secrecy. The first step in tackling it is talking about it—reminding ourselves and others that it’s a human experience, not a personal failing.

Here at the Rutland Mental Health Cafes, we can support anyone who is feeling lonely, or who needs a little support in their life.

We run our sessions on Thursday evenings, 5:30-8:30pm in Oakham, and Fridays 1:00-4:00pm at Uppingham Town Hall.

Please feel free to drop by and have a chat with one of our lovely listeners who will be able to listen, offer guidance and signpost if needed.

🫖💭 Anxiety can show up quietly.
It’s not always panic attacks or visible stress.
Sometimes it’s the endless mental loop, the racing heart, or that heavy feeling you just can’t shake.

At our cafe, we believe in creating a space where it’s okay to not be okay. Whether you come in for a cup of tea or just to take a breath — you’re welcome here, exactly as you are. 💛

🌱 Gentle reminder:
– You are not a burden.
– You are not broken.
– You are not alone.

Come sit with us. No pressure to talk. Just be. ☕✨
