Hold my hand Counselling Hub

Evidence based counselling services in building community of support and advocating for mental health

17/11/2025

Today, we proudly unveil the new logo of Hold My Hand Counselling Hub, a symbol of our renewed commitment to healing, hope, and human connection.

At the heart of this design is HMH, held together by the image of two hands meeting, a reminder that no one should walk through pain, recovery, or healing alone.

The warm orange palette reflects energy, courage, transformation, and compassion; everything we embody as Your Partner in Healing.

This rebrand represents more than a new look.
It is a promise:
To keep showing up.
To keep holding space.
To keep holding hands.
To keep restoring hope.

Welcome to the new chapter of Hold My Hand Counselling Hub.
Healing starts here.

Peer pressure is one of the strongest influences in substance use and relapse.

How it fuels addiction:

1️⃣ Normalizes harmful habits (“everyone is doing it”).

2️⃣ Creates fear of rejection if you say no.

3️⃣ Encourages risky experimentation.

4️⃣ Makes recovery harder if old friends remain close.

Choose your circle wisely, the right support system can make recovery easier, while the wrong one can drag you back.

Recovery isn’t just about saying “no” to drugs or alcohol. It’s about understanding what drives the cravings.

Common triggers include:

1️⃣ Stress and unresolved emotions

2️⃣ Certain places or environments

3️⃣ Old friends tied to substance use

4️⃣ Celebrations or parties

5️⃣ Loneliness and boredom

Recognizing your triggers is the first step. Managing them with healthy coping skills keeps recovery strong.

Friends are a blessing, but sometimes professional help is needed.

Talking to a friend gives you:
❤️ Comfort and companionship
❤️ Emotional support
❤️ A listening ear

Talking to a counsellor gives you:
👉Professional guidance
👉Safe, non-judgmental space
👉Tools to cope and grow
👉Confidentiality

Both have their place but counselling helps you see what you may not recognize on your own.

Gratitude isn’t just saying “thank you.” It’s a mindset that shifts your focus from what’s missing to what’s present.

Benefits of practicing gratitude:
1️⃣ Reduces stress and anxiety.

2️⃣ Boosts mood and increases happiness.

3️⃣ Improves sleep quality.

4️⃣ Strengthens relationships.

5️⃣ Builds resilience in tough times.

Start small, write down 3 things you’re grateful for each day. Over time, you’ll notice your mind becoming lighter and stronger.

Many addictions begin with a simple, “Come on, just try it.”
Peer pressure is powerful but it can be resisted.

How to break free from peer pressure:

1️⃣ Know your values: decide in advance what you won’t compromise.

2️⃣ Practice saying no: a firm but respectful “no” works.

3️⃣ Choose friends wisely: the right circle supports your growth.

4️⃣ Avoid risky environments: prevention is protection.

5️⃣ Seek support: accountability makes standing firm easier.

True friends don’t pressure you into harm, they protect your future.

Good communication is the lifeline of every relationship. But certain habits can quietly destroy trust and connection.

🚫 Common mistakes to avoid:

1️⃣ Interrupting: it shows you’re not really listening.

2️⃣ Using “always” and “never”: they sound accusatory.

3️⃣ Silent treatment: creates distance, not solutions.

4️⃣ Talking over emotions: dismissing feelings instead of validating them.

5️⃣ Not clarifying: assumptions lead to misunderstandings.

Healthy communication is less about being right, more about being understood.

A rushed, stressful morning often leads to a stressful day. But small, intentional habits can create calmness that carries you through.

Try these morning habits:

1️⃣ Wake up a little earlier, even 15 minutes makes a difference.

2️⃣ Avoid phone scrolling first thing.

3️⃣ Drink water before coffee.

4️⃣ Stretch, pray, or meditate for a few minutes.

5️⃣ Set one clear intention for the day.

Calm mornings = productive and peaceful days.

WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY 2025

Theme: Access to Services: Mental Health in Catastrophes and Emergencies

Not all catastrophes make headlines, some happen quietly in our minds, behind screens, between scrolling and sighing.

Social media connects us, inspires us, and sometimes even heals us.
But it can also drain us, distort our worth, and make us feel alone in a crowd of likes.

Here in Nigeria, many find help online, through therapy pages, support communities, and voices that remind them they’re not alone. That’s access at work.
Yet, we must make these spaces safe, kind, and compassionate.

Today, let’s be intentional:
Speak life, your words can heal.

👉Share light, not panic.
👉Rest when needed, breaks are healing too.
👉Reach out help is available, and hope is real.

The internet is powerful, but kindness is stronger.
Let’s use our voices to make healing possible both online and offline.

We often fear that showing our struggles makes us look weak. But the truth is, vulnerability is strength in action.

Here’s why:

1️⃣ It builds connection: when you open up, others feel safe to do the same.

2️⃣ It deepens trust: honesty is the foundation of healing.

3️⃣ It allows growth: you can’t heal what you keep hidden.

4️⃣ It takes courage: facing your truth is braver than pretending.

5️⃣ It invites help: no one can support you if they don’t know what’s wrong.

Vulnerability isn’t about exposing your weakness; it’s about unlocking your healing.
