🌟 Understanding Depression: It Doesn’t Always Look Like Sadness🌟

Many people believe that depression is only about feeling sad or crying. However, it often wears many faces. It can manifest as irritability, fatigue, or even a sense of emptiness. Some may seem fine on the outside, while inside they’re struggling with overwhelming feelings.

Let’s break the stigma and open the conversation. If you or someone you know is fighting this battle, remember: it’s okay to seek help. 💚

World Mental Health Day takes place every year on 10 October. It’s a reminder of the importance of good mental health and the need to prioritise and invest in good mental health. Empower Your Daughter: Join Our Self-Esteem Group for Girls in Years 10 to 11!

As your daughter approaches her GCSEs and navigates the pressures of mock exams, she may be feeling overwhelmed by the expectations placed upon her. Research shows that:

- Approximately 47% of students experience significant anxiety related to exams, which can severely impact their mental health and performance.
- Girls in particular report higher levels of stress during this critical time, with studies indicating that they are more likely to experience exam-related anxiety than boys.
- The intense pressure to achieve can lead to feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt, affecting their overall well-being.

Our self-esteem group for girls in Years 10 to 11 provides a supportive environment where they can address these challenges head-on. Through group work, participants can:

- Share their experiences and feelings, realising they are not alone in their struggles with exam pressure and anxiety.
- Develop effective coping strategies and stress management techniques that can help them navigate their academic responsibilities.
- Build resilience and confidence through supportive interactions with peers who understand the pressures they face.

By joining this group, your daughter will gain valuable tools to manage her anxiety and enhance her self-esteem, empowering her to approach her exams with a positive mindset.

World Mental Health Day takes place every year on 10 October. It’s a reminder of the importance of good mental health and the need to prioritise and invest in good mental health. Support for Your Daughter: Join Our Self-Esteem Group for Girls in Years 7 to 9

Navigating the transition to secondary school can be particularly challenging for girls in Years 7 to 9, and some may struggle with feelings of sadness, isolation, or even thoughts of self-harm. Alarmingly, recent statistics reveal that:

- Around 20% of adolescent girls have reported self-harming behaviors, often as a way to cope with emotional pain.
- Many girls experience increased pressure during this transition, leading to heightened feelings of anxiety and depression.
- Studies indicate that girls are more likely than boys to engage in self-harm, often as a response to social and emotional challenges.

Our self-esteem group is designed specifically for girls in Years 7 to 9 who may be dealing with self-harm or thoughts of self-harm. This safe and supportive environment allows participants to:

- Share their experiences and feelings without judgment, fostering a sense of community and understanding.
- Learn healthy coping mechanisms and strategies to manage their emotions effectively.
- Build confidence and resilience through positive interactions and group activities.

By participating in this group, your daughter will connect with peers who understand her struggles and work towards developing a healthier self-image and coping strategies.

Empower Your Daughter: Join Our Self-Esteem Group for Girls in Years 7 to 9!

As your daughter embarks on her journey through secondary school, the transition can be both exciting and challenging. Many girls in Years 7 to 9 experience significant changes that can impact their self-esteem and mental well-being. Research indicates that:

- 1 in 3 adolescent girls report feelings of low self-worth or anxiety, particularly during this critical developmental stage.
- The pressure to fit in and perform academically can lead to increased feelings of stress and isolation among girls.
- Studies have shown that girls are more susceptible to social anxiety, which can hinder their confidence and ability to form new friendships.

Our self-esteem group, designed specifically for girls in Years 7 to 9, offers a supportive space to share experiences and navigate these challenges together. Group work is effective in boosting self-esteem because it:

- Creates a sense of belonging and acceptance, helping girls realise they are not alone in their struggles.
- Encourages open dialogue, fostering connections that can lead to lasting friendships.
- Provides tools and strategies to enhance personal growth and resilience in the face of challenges.

By participating in this group, your daughter will have the opportunity to build confidence, develop a positive self-image, and make meaningful connections with her peers who understand her journey.
