If you’re wondering how to get someone help for mental health difficulties, remember your support can go a long way. Challenges that seem overwhelming on their own may become more manageable with you by their side.

For instance, if you’re wondering how to help someone with anxiety, you might offer to sit with them while they make phone calls or book appointments.

You could also help break bigger tasks into smaller, more manageable steps. For example, the task ‘improve mental health’ may feel overwhelming and have no clear starting point. Yet you might be able to help them break it down into smaller steps, such as ‘call GP for an appointment,’ ‘order grocery shopping online’ and ‘go for a ten-minute walk today.’

Making taking action feel safer can also help. For instance, if you wanted to encourage someone to seek therapy, you could search together online over a cup of tea to make it a more pleasant experience.

On our theme of mental health awareness week, we thought you might like some tips to help you feel more confident about having a mental health conversation:

• find a space that feels comfortable and private for both of you.
• give them your full attention by turning your phone off and choosing a time when you won’t be interrupted or have to rush off.
• have an idea of what you want to say, whether that’s expressing concern or sharing changes you’ve noticed.
• listen and try to understand their point of view. It might be the first time they’ve talked about their problems, so you may need to be patient while they find the words.
• ask questions to understand them better, but remember not everyone will want to talk in-depth.
• avoid minimising their concerns (such as by saying ‘just be more positive’).
• ask how you can help them. If they aren’t sure, you could make suggestions. However, avoid telling them what they should do.

Did you know it is mental health awareness week?

Two of the most common mental health conditions in the UK are anxiety and depression. While signs and symptoms of conditions vary, some common features can make it challenging to ask for support. For instance, someone with depression may have less energy, low motivation, feel hopeless and have difficulties making decisions. Alternatively, someone with an anxiety disorder might feel scared to seek help, worry about the unknown or be unable to think their way through the problem.

Knowing how to support someone with depression, anxiety or another common mental health condition often starts with understanding what’s stopping them from reaching out for help. Awareness of what’s underneath their resistance means you can support them with compassion.
