Help & Information
Welcome to Off the Record's Help & Information pages!
At Off the Record, we think about mental health in a similar way to physical health. Mental health is about how we feel, think and behave.
Sometimes it can be helpful to think of good mental health as:
- Having confidence in yourself and your abilities
- Being able to express your emotions, both the positive and the negative
- Feeling good about who you are and your identity
- Being able to bounce back when you encounter any difficulties
- Being able to learn new things and develop
- Having good relationships where we feel comfortable, happy and able to trust people
We all go through times when we feel stressed out and worried about stuff - life is always going to have ups and downs. But we can learn ways to take care of ourselves, so even when things are stressful we can still cope.
