Mental Health Action Week 2010

Mental Health Action Week 2010
Each year we use Mental Health Action Week to raise awareness of mental health. This year, we're encouraged you to look after your mental health.

Mental health is about the way you think and feel and your ability to deal with ups and downs.

There are lots of things you can do to look after your mental health. Many of them are simple changes and don't cost a fortune or take up loads of time. Anyone can follow our advice.

Here are 10 practical ways to look after your mental health:

Talk about your feelings
Keep active
Eat well
Drink sensibly
Keep in touch
Ask for help
Take a break
Do something you are good at
Accept who you are
Care for others

Encouraging others to look after their mental health
You can help raise awareness of mental health in your workplace, school or university by purchasing our Good Mental Health Packs that provide helpful advice about how to maintain good mental health.

  1. I know many fathers that struggle mentally due to being denied access to their own children and it is a sad case in the UK that many fathers have to fight to get to see their children.
