Share your mental wellbeing tips and experience with Mind to Mind

Hearing about the lived experience of others can help with life’s daily stresses.
Change Mental Health is working with NHS Inform and Scottish Government on the Mind to Mind mental health resource, which features video and audio of different people talking about how they deal with life’s challenges. They are looking to hear from more people about their mental wellbeing challenges to help others who may be going through the same.
Have you experienced social isolation and loneliness, mental health stigma and discrimination, or is your mental health being impacted by the cost-of-living crisis and/or living in poverty? They want to hear from you.
You might want to share the difficult patch you went through and the practical advice, tips and support that helped you. You might want to share your ups and downs and the challenges you’ve faced that can help other people engage with relevant and similar mental health support.
Contact Kieran.Scott@changemh.org if you are keen to share your lived experience, or know someone or an organisation that would be happy to help out.
