Determination and resilience...
Here is Emma's story about how physical wellness can affect the mental side of things and vice versa....
Sometimes it’s just best to voice what you are feeling...
Here is Lucy's experience with mental health...
On the days you feel you can talk even if it’s just a sentence do it
Good morning and happy Thursday. Today we will be sending out some more of your Mental Health emails. We are so touched and honoured with the responses we have had - because SMASH is just as much about you guys as it is about us! You know our stories well... but now lets read one of the inspiring stories from our SMASH community:
Not every day is happy...
'Not every day is happy but I love the days that are, and accept the ones that aren't' - We love this ending to Julia's email. Her story is here...
Health anxiety...
Here is Alex's story. She has said she is happy to chat with anyone who feels they are experiencing similar feelings so if you would like to reach out with her, please email back to SMASH and we will put you in touch...
It's ok, not to be ok...
This week we have been sharing our mental health experiences and asking for yours... we have been positively overwhelmed by the response and felt that summarising them would be an injustice to you guys who have been so open and brave to share your stories. For this reason we have decided to send the responses over several emails, for the next 3 days. We hope you will take the time to read these stories as some are extremely personal and brave.
Sam - mental health awareness week
Good morning all, and welcome to day 2 of mental health week. This is Sam and I wanted to share with you a little more of my mental health story since going through the worst of it!
Ash - mental health awareness week
We want to embrace the belief that the more we talk openly and freely about our mental health and wellbeing, the more help people receive and the less 'taboo' the subject becomes. With this in mind, let me start the week off with my own experience...
We need your help!
We are sending the weekend email out earlier than normal because next week you will be getting a daily dose of SMASH emails As it is World Mental Health Awareness Day on Wednesday, and SMASH is all about physical and mental wellbeing, throughout the week we will be sharing personal stories regarding mental health and our perspective on this vast subject.
Run, run, run... keep running and then run some more!!
Sam here, wishing you a very happy weekend!! I can't believe it's already been a week since the marathon.... and I must say I am only just starting to feel like myself again! There is a weird combination of feeling amazing and also feeling slightly lost - I have all this spare time in which I would usually be running!
