Let's Talk: 

Healthy Coping Mechanisms

Written in collaboration with Resilience Collective

Since 2023, we began partnering with Resilience Collective, a non-profit organisation dedicated to advocating for and supporting mental wellness through free peer support, with a special focus on youths. Introducing our first monthly blog post series, featuring invaluable mental health insights generously shared by the Resilience Collective team.

Tip #1: Embrace the Ride

Learn to accept that people will come and go as they move on to the next stage in life. Being aware of what we can control such as our emotions, attitudes and having at least one person that you can trust to talk about it. 

 

Tip #2: Reclaiming Time, Rediscovering Happiness

Manage your time effectively by prioritising your own mental health and set aside time to spend with family and friends. Reading up and looking at materials for information can help one to better cope with mental health challenges.

 

Tip #3: Opinions Off, Progress On: Your Journey, Your Rules!

Reframing our mindset helps to block out and filter negative opinions so we can be secure and assertive with our own decisions. Ignoring people’s opinions about you also helps you to focus on your progress and to go at your own pace.
