• Low mood or feeling unhappy most of the time • Loss of enjoyment and interest in life • Feeling tired and lethargic • Inability to cope with things that used to be manageable • Difficulty concentrating and making decisions • Feeling listless and agitated • Loss of appetite or weight; or weight gain • Lack of sleep or too much sleep • Loss of libido • Thinking of death or suicide

We all have mental health. Just like our bodies, our minds can become unwell. At times we can struggle and our mental health is not as good as it should be. Help is at hand . This guide covers where you can go and what help and support there is in North Lincolnshire.

Are any of these long lasting, showing no sign of improvement or severe? Everyone will feel low from time to time and everyone has something that they feel anxious about. It’s when these very normal emotional experiences have unhelpful effects on day to day life that they can be termed a common mental health problem. Some of the problems people might want help and support with include: • Depression and low mood • Problems with anxiety (including social anxiety and generalised anxiety) • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) • Specific phobia • Panic disorder • Stress Website: www.northlincs.gov.uk/peoplehealth-and-care/health-and-healthy-lifestyle/ mental-health-and-emotional-well-being

Talking Things Over Are you ready to talk to somebody? Talking therapy is for anyone who’s going through a bad time or has emotional problems they can’t sort out on their own. Talking therapies can help all sorts of people in lots of different situations. You may also hear them referred to as talking treatments or psychological therapies. Why talking therapy may help Sometimes it’s easier to talk to a stranger than to relatives or friends. During talking therapy, a trained counsellor or therapist listens to you and helps you find your own answers to problems, without judging you. The therapist will give you time to talk, cry, shout or just think. It’s an opportunity to look at your problems in a different way with someone who will respect you and your opinions. Usually, you’ll talk one-to-one with the therapist. Sometimes talking treatments are held in groups or couples, such as relationship counselling. Talking therapies can help if you have: Depression, anxiety, an eating disorder, a phobia, or an addiction. They’re also often used if you’ve been diagnosed with a serious mental health condition, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. 12

The types of therapy The term ‘talking therapy’ covers all the psychological therapies that involve a person talking to a therapist about their problems. Although there are lots of different types of talking therapy, they all have a similar aim: to help you feel better. Some people say that talking therapies don’t make their problems go away, but they find it easier to cope with them and feel happier. For some problems and conditions, one type of talking therapy may be better than another. Different talking therapies also suit different people. Your GP or mental health worker can help you decide which one would be best for you.

A brief explanation of various talking treatments and how they can help: Counselling Probably the best-known talking therapy and the one most likely to be available on the NHS at your GP surgery. Counselling on the NHS usually consists of 6 to 12 sessions, each an hour long. You talk in confidence to a counsellor, who helps you to think about your situation. Counselling is ideal for people who are basically healthy, but need help coping with a current crisis, such as: anger, relationship issues, bereavement, redundancy, infertility, or the onset of serious illness.

Mental Health and Wellbeing in North Lincolnshire • Healthwatch North Lincolnshire

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) The aim of CBT is to help you think more positively about life and free yourself from unhelpful patterns of behaviour. Available on the NHS, you set goals with your therapist and may carry out tasks between sessions. A course typically involves around 6 to 15 sessions, which last about an hour each. Like counselling, CBT deals with current situations more than events in your past or childhood. CBT has been shown to work for a variety of mental health problems, including depression, anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and some eating disorders, especially bulimia. There are also self-help books and computer courses which use the concepts of CBT to help you overcome common problems like depression.

Psychotherapy This involves talking more about how your past influences what happens in the present and the choices you make. It tends to last longer than CBT and counselling. Sessions are an hour long and can continue for a year or more. There are different types of psychotherapy, but they all aim to help you understand more about yourself, improve your relationships and get more out of life. Psychotherapy can be especially useful for people with long-term or recurring problems to find the cause of their difficulties.

Family Therapy

Family therapists deal with lots of different issues, including: child and adolescent behavioural problems; mental health conditions; illness and disability in the family; separation, divorce and step-family life; domestic violence; drug or alcohol addiction.

Couples Therapy

(Also known as Relationship counselling) Can help when a relationship is in crisis (after an affair, for example). Both partners talk in confidence to a counsellor or therapist to explore what has gone wrong in the relationship and how to change things for the better. It can help couples learn more about each other’s needs and communicate better. Ideally, both partners should attend the weekly hour-long sessions, but they can still help if just one person attends.

Group Therapy In group therapy, up to around 12 people meet, together with a therapist. It’s a useful way for people who share a common problem to get support and advice from each other. It can help you realise you’re not alone in your experiences, which is beneficial in itself. Some people prefer to be part of a group or find that it suits them better than individual therapy. Information in this section was sourced from: www.nhs.uk/Conditions/stress-anxietydepression/Pages/benefits-of-talking-therapy. aspx

You may be offered family therapy if the whole family is in difficulty. This may be because one member of the family has a serious problem that’s affecting the rest of the family. Sessions can last from 45 minutes to an hourand-a-half, and usually take place several weeks apart. Mental Health and Wellbeing in North Lincolnshire • Healthwatch North Lincolnshire

How can I look after my mental health? The Mental Health Foundation stresses that it is important to take care of yourself and get the most from life.The Foundation recommends 10 practical ways to look after your mental health.

from whatever’s going on inside your own head. They can help keep you active, keep you grounded and help you solve practical problems.

Take a Break

See below and www.mentalhealth.org for more information.

A change of scene or a change of pace is good for your mental health. It could be a fiveminute pause from cleaning your kitchen, a half-hour lunch break at work or a weekend exploring somewhere new.

Talk about your feelings

Do something you’re good at

Talking about your feelings can help you stay in good mental health and deal with times when you feel troubled.

Keep Active

Experts believe exercise releases chemicals in your brain that make you feel good. Regular exercise can boost your self-esteem and help you concentrate, sleep, look and feel better.

Accept who you are

We’re all different. It’s much healthier to accept that you’re unique than to wish you were more like someone else.

Care for others

Eat Well

Your brain needs a range of nutrients in order to stay healthy and function well, just like the other organs in your body. A diet that’s good for your physical health is also good for your mental health. See www.nhs.uk/change4life

Drink Sensibly

We often drink alcohol to change our mood. Some people drink to deal with fear or loneliness, but the effect is only temporary. When the drink wears off, you feel worse because of the way the alcohol has affected your brain and the rest of your body. Drinking is not a good way to manage difficult feelings.

Keep in touch

Strong family ties and supportive friends can help you deal with the stresses of life. Friends and family can make you feel included and cared for. They can offer different views

14

What do you love doing? What activities can you lose yourself in? What did you love doing in the past?

Helping others, for example by volunteering, can help improve our wellbeing.

Ask for Help

None of us are superhuman. We all sometimes get tired or overwhelmed by how we feel or when things don’t go to plan. If things are getting too much for you and you feel you can’t cope, ask for help. Your family or friends may be able to offer practical help or a listening ear. Local services are there to help you. This Directory will help you find self-help and support groups, local services and organisations which can help you make new contacts, share information and learn new techniques for coping.

I am recovering. How do I keep well? Recovery is about building a meaningful and satisfying life, as defined by the individual, and rediscovering a sense of personal identity separate to their illness. Recovery is about small steps and positive outcomes to enrich life and build confidence.
