Support someone
Supporting someone with anxiety, depression or suicidal feelings can make a big difference to them. Support might be talking to someone who’s struggling with their mental health, helping them to get professional support or giving them practical support.
Sometimes it can be hard to know what the ‘right’ thing to do is.
We have practical resources to help you decide what to say and do to help someone feel better. We’ve also got tips for looking after yourself.

Caring for a child or young person
Children and young people who are part of a strong and supportive family are more likely to achieve their best possible mental health.
Many parents and carers know this. It can naturally feel like a lot of pressure.
It’s important to understand that there is no ‘perfect’ family. That there are many ways you can help support your child's mental health at each stage – from pregnancy through to their teenage years.
