If you know someone is struggling with their mental health, let them know they are not the only one who
is, reassure them they won’t be labelled as crazy or mad, and it doesn’t necessarily mean they will be put
on medication or taken into hospital.

Asking for help is always the most important step towards getting better, and that feeling low or anxious is
a very common experience, especially in the present
uncertain time.
