Information for young people

Mental health problems are more common than you might think.

In fact, they’re even more common than asthma. This section is especially for young people who may have been affected by mental health problems or would like to learn more about mental health.

There’s a section that goes through all the different things that can affect our mental health such as bullying, family problems and body image and you can also find out how to keep your mind healthy.

You can learn about some common mental health problems such as anorexia and depression and find out what to do if you or a friend has a problem.

We want this website to be useful to you, so if there’s anything you think we’ve missed out or you’d like more information about – drop us an email at comms@swyt.nhs.uk.
