Be with others
Spend your day with others! You would be surprised by how other people such as friends and family can positively influence your day-to-day thoughts. Being with others can help you build trust and associations with more friend groups.
- People with more severe forms of mental illness have smaller social networks than others and have more family members than friends in their social circle.
- People with mental health problems often anticipate rejection from other people because of the stigma associated with mental health. They may avoid social contact, as a form of 'self-stigma'.
