It's Homelessness and Loneliness Awareness Week (4–10th of August) and a reminder that feeling lonely is more common than we think.

Isolation can deeply affect our mental health especially if we are not communicating the things that matter most to us.

When you're not feeling your best, reaching out can be hard. But you're not alone.

Sharing with someone how you're feeling can be a way forward, to start feeling better.

Like they say: "a problem shared is a problem halved".

Sharing (when you feel safe to do so) is caring (for yourself), it's not swearing.
