Bell Let’s Talk Day wrapped up yesterday and we are reminded how important someone’s mental health can be.
Jen Whalen, a Mental Health Coordinator for the Northern Health Region tells us some common sings that might indicate someone is struggling with their mental health.
“A sign that someone might be struggling might be anything that’s not typical for them. It could be that they are acting out of character, doing things that’s not typical such as withdrawing more, maybe they are not joining in with things that they used to like to enjoy. Maybe they liked to come out for sports or go out for coffee with a friend and now they aren’t doing that anymore.”
If you are dealing with depression and would like to seek help, Call a Mental Wellness & Recovery Program @ 1-866-242-1571 for children and adolescents, or call 204-677-5350 for adults.
