This week, Sad Dog, a mental health and wellbeing organisation, came to visit Caerphilly People First to talk about mental health and suicide first-aid. We spoke about different types of mental health, and what is anxiety and what is stress. We also spoke about how people have different coping strategies and how stress isn’t a mental health condition. The feedback we had after the session was that members felt a better understanding of suicide and mental health and feel much more confident to have a conversation with someone. We also spoke about how we can approach friends or family and how to keep an eye on them. Thank you sad dog for taking your time to come and have a chat with us.
