- Mental Health & ResilienceA few weeks ago I was kindly asked to talk about my mental health experiences and Anxious as Anything. 90% of adults have said that the pandemic has negatively affected their mental health. More than ever, we're asking ourselves: what can we do to support our mental health.
- Anxious As AnythingOver this lockdown I've been curating mental health resources to help the community (plus myself). Podcasts, apps, books and extras. I'm spending Christmas solo and I'm not alone so it's nice to have a community to relate too. Visit www.instagram.com/anxiousasanything www.anxiousasanything.co.uk
