Info & Resources
When you're struggling, or just not feeling great, it can be hard to remember the help strategies that you've come up with, either alone or with your worker. This section provides help and resources to support your mental health and wellbeing that may be helpful to look at when you're in need of some support. We would encourage you to read these resources not just when you’re struggling but also to build your knowledge for the future. It may be helpful to share these resources with friends and family, the people who care about you, so that they can remind you of these strategies too.
