World Mental Health Day Webinar: Making the Connections

The HSE has launched a new campaign highlighting the common signs of mental health difficulties, ongoing stress, low mood, anxiety or sleep problems that many people experience. The campaign encourages people to explore the range of information and resources available on yourmentalhealth.ie.

The campaign is responding to HSE research which found that one in two adults in Ireland have experienced difficulties with their mental health. For some, these difficulties include ongoing stress, low mood, anxiety or problems with sleep. However, research has shown that often when someone is not feeling themselves and this feeling persists, it can be hard to recognise or they might accept it as part of their normal daily life. Ongoing stress, low mood anxiety or sleep problems can all seem like unconnected difficulties but they can be connected to our mental health and there are many supports available that can help.
