15. Mental Health Preparedness

  • Summary

  • This episode of Mate Helping Mate features some solo wisdom from John about preparedness to weather poor mental health. It’s one half of a two-episode special we’ve called ‘Rough But Ready’. Preparedness is being proactive with positive strategies for whatever life throws at us. Like preparing for a storm, it’s important to have some plans in place for when poor mental health strikes us. 

    Being prepared with options can reduce fear, anxiety, and losses that accompany mental health crises. Preparedness is important in achieving goals and avoiding negative outcomes. It is important to have an understanding that mental wellbeing is cyclic. That is, anytime you cease being proactive you stop; we cease moving forward to a better and brighter future. Like riding a bike we fall over or fall off. 

    Continually practising your mental health preparedness bolsters self-confidence, builds self-worth and so is the foundation for resilience. Have a listen, maybe you’ll be able to add a few tidbits to your toolbox and so strengthen your resilience. John maybe a little rough but at least we will be ready for any setback life may dish up.
