The 10th October was world mental health day, so here at Dementia Support Forum we wanted to ask you what you do to support your own mental health.
People living with dementia have a higher than normal chance of experiencing depression and anxiety, especially if you’ve had depression before.
People living with both dementia and another mental health problem might benefit from talking therapies, including counselling and CBT.
We have a page on the Alzheimer’s Society website detailing ways to manage living with both dementia and a mental health problem. You can read this here.
Do you have other tips on how you manage your mental health? Please share any self-care tips below.
