Youth Board Top Tips
Useful top tips from some of our Youth Board:
“I always find that surrounding myself in nature, with friends, and keeping my mind busy help me to feel better sometimes. But on days where it doesn’t, accepting the fact that it’s okay to feel down and that everyone does feel the same as you at some point or another, makes me feel less alone and more optimistic about tomorrow.”
Charlotte
“As I can’t do much in terms of physical exercise and movement, I like to ground myself with a hobby that has a physical result. Cross stitching is my favourite craft; it keeps me in the present, and in the end, I have a piece of art that I can be proud of and share with those around me.”
Megan
“I believe it is important to understand yourself to know what is best for your mental health. Everyone is different; therefore, everyone has their own preference as to what helps them. For me, it’s to try new things and don’t be afraid to say yes!”
