What support can I access if I am struggling with low mood or depression?

Many people struggle with low mood occasionally in reaction to many things, but it becomes a problem when it is more prolonged and effects your interest in things you usually enjoy and your daily functioning. You may feel low in energy, unable to concentrate or unable to look after yourself.

There are some things you can do to help manage feelings of low mood. Self-care for depression - Mind has a few things to try if you are able. However, if you do not feel able to manage alone, it could be helpful to reach out for support from friends, family or healthcare professionals.

The Centre for Wellbeing can support you with symptoms of anxiety through counselling or support from a Mental Health Practitioner. You can contact us today via email.

With low mood, you may also have thoughts of suicide or of harming yourself. These feelings may come and go or feel constant. You are not alone and if you need urgent support, please view our immediate support page to see all the crisis support available to you.
