When worry or sadness take over
Everyone has tough days - times when worries won’t switch off or when everything feels heavy and flat.
If your mind keeps racing, or you’re just getting through the day without much joy, it might be time to pause and reach out.
You don’t have to face it alone - there are small steps and supports that can help you start feeling lighter again.
Learn more about what helps and where to find support.
When home doesn’t feel safe
Home should be where you feel protected - but for some people, it’s where fear and control live instead.
If you feel unsafe, unheard or constantly on edge, you’re not alone and it’s not your fault.
There are people who will believe you and help you find safety.
When food or body thoughts take over
Worrying about food, exercise or your body can start small - but over time, those thoughts can take up too much space.
If eating, appearance or guilt around food are controlling how you feel, there’s support that can help you find balance again.
When coping becomes the problem
Coping can look like many things - drinking more, zoning out online, pushing through without rest.
If those habits leave you feeling worse instead of better, it’s not a failure - it’s a signal to reach out.
You deserve support and a healthier way forward.
Navigating parenthood
Becoming a parent can bring big changes - and it’s normal to feel emotional or overwhelmed.
But if sadness or anxiety don’t fade, or if you’re finding it hard to bond, you don’t have to face it on your own.
Support is available for you and your family.
