It’s not always easy to talk about mental health, especially if you’re not feeling mentally well and need some help. It can also be hard to know what to say when a friend or colleague expresses a mental health concern. At UBC, they’ve put together a great webpage that identifies some things you can do and say, whether you’re in need of help or want to be better prepared when someone else asks for help. Visit https://wellbeing.ubc.ca/wellbeing-campaigns-and-initiatives/thrive/talk-about-mental-health, where they talk about the Thrive 5, look at barriers to asking for help and provide encouragement to look after your mental health.
