Money

Managing personal finances and good mental health go hand in hand. So, if you are struggling to keep control of your income and expenditure, you may find that your mental health is affected.

Likewise, if you find that you cannot cope with your feelings or behaviour, your finances may get neglected.

If you find that your finances have become a problem, there is a range of help on offer to make it easier for you to get back onto an even footing.
