A good lifestyle supports mental health. Research suggests that a diet rich in fruit and vegetables, and regular moderate exercise, boosts your wellbeing. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, tuna and mackerel, cut the risk of dementia and mental decline. Exercise regularly, get out into nature, and avoid excessive use of alcohol and drugs.
Getting quality sleep, and enough of it, is essential for physical and mental health.
Psychologists have a range of approaches that can help you with difficulties you may face, delaying treatment or dropping out too early can make recovery slower. What’s more, other problems can creep in, such as relationship problems, issues with work, and other stresses. So don’t delay. See your GP or look for a psychologist with experience in addressing your issues.
