Time to Talk Day is an annual awareness day held in February. It’s a focus day for us all to have conversations about mental health run by the charity Mind.
Talking about mental health isn’t easy, but starting to open up and discuss with others is a small start to changing lives. Sharing your feelings, worries, doubts and concerns can lead to getting help and support or just feeling much better in yourself. Talking to someone with mental health also gives you an idea of what they are experiencing.
Sometimes it can be easier to talk to someone side by side or whilst you are doing something else like drawing or walking. Open up as much as you feel like without the pressure of feeling like you have to discuss everything.
If you are the one listening, then don’t feel like you have to ‘fix them’. Be there without judgments and be their safe space for when they want to talk some more.
