Often in the morning we are racing around & it's easy to not prioritise doing something for no reason other than happiness. This activity is short & sweet, and is a reminder to fit something you enjoy into your morning. For more info on how we can support: wearewithyou.org.uk/mental-health

There are many reasons someone may self-harm, and it can be difficult to ask for help. Talking about it can be the first step to finding alternative ways to manage painful feelings. 💙 Read our resources here: bit.ly/3bSUrOM 🎨Laura Heartlines #SelfInjuryAwarenessDay

We’ve updated our Kent leaflets and referral forms. If you’d like a copy please email mabadmin@wearewithyou.org.uk #SIAD2021 #SIAD #selfinjuryawarenessday

Finding out that your child is self-harming can be upsetting and stressful. With the right help most people who self-harm do recover, but it can take time. You can help your child by being there to listen and to support them. #selfharmawarenessday wearewithyou.org.uk/help-and-advic…

Making Aromadough can be a #mindful activity as a #DistractionandDiversion from #selfharm or hard to manage emotions.  #SIAD2021 #SIAD #SelfInjuryAwarenessDay

Women who are affected by drugs are often underrepresented. @nyejones92 writes about how @WeAreWithYou are calling for support in research which is vital to help them be heard | medium.com/we-are-with-yo…
