Is Your Community Helping Or Hurting Your Mental Health? 🤷

In-person community tend to be more nurturing. Online tend to be more competitive/toxic (perhaps because behind a screen)

It’s both hurting and helping, so I just gotta be aware of which is which and find more helping communities

Having supportive people i can turn to helps!

Like relationships we have different seasons of life where we meet different groups of people that are aligned with where we are at.

Helping me in many ways

I think it is helping but so much more needs to be placed in the system to address the gaps. Work in progress. =)

in between, depending on situation

My community (colleagues at work) is helping with my mental health. They provide a lot of support to me!

yes! there are people who provide safe space for me to share freely about my feelings, and people who are more MH informed as well who can empathise with me :slight_smile:

It’s helping my mental health. My peers are supportive and a trusted group that i can rely on

Community can be both? But we can play our part to help others

My community has been helpful to my mental health! It helps that the people around me are getting more literate at mental health knowledge ◡̈

Always remember you’re not alone.

Working in mental health sector certainly helps :slightly_smiling_face:

They are providing all the necessary support and services available to those need it.

Definitely Awesome. Trying this out for the first time. Shall be back

Yes i think my community is helping

They are helping it. I know I can go to them for emotional support or practical advice

I think it depends on the type of community it is. Generally it is supportive.
