#MHAW2020So, I didn’t think I would be writing this in the middle of an epidemic but here goes...
Around 8 months ago and long before all the current madness descended on the world, I decided to start writing down tips that could help people struggling with their mental health. My brain is always rolling with ideas and this one just felt right and snowballed.
To here....Help with Anxiety.
I am very proud to announce on the first day of mental health week, the publishing of my first book. It’s available on Amazon and other online stores as well as bookshops and for educational settings. There are 150 tips and strategies to help anybody suffering from anxiety, worry and panic. It is also suitable for anyone suffering from depression or stress and for those who are looking to improve their all-round wellbeing. It is also useful for anybody looking to help someone suffering from these conditions.
I have always felt passionate about mental health and I have had my own journey and battles with anxiety over the years. I won’t go into it too much here but I do cover it in the introduction to the book if you read it. I have walked the miles and have the t-shirt, the shoes, the jeans, the badge and the hat.
Writing it has been challenging as I have had to write it in the evenings around working full time and also around being the best husband and dad I can be when the kids are awake. It’s exhausted me at points, as having a toddler and a baby is exhausting as it is, but it’s done now.
The UK and the wider world were already experiencing a mental health pandemic as it was and now Coronavirus has added to it in unknown proportions. Before the current crisis, 1 in 4 people in the UK experienced a mental health problem every year and 1 in 6 experienced anxiety or depression in any given week. A figure I imagine has significantly increased now.
This mental health week is probably the biggest and most needed that there has ever been. So, although I feel nervous about putting myself out there and being open about my journey with mental health, I hope that the tips and strategies can help other people to get through their own battles.
On launching the book, I am also proud to say that I am now an ambassador for Rotherham & Barnsley Mind which is an independent affiliate of the national charity. I will be donating 10% of all profits from the book to them to help with the brilliant work they do.
I wanted to give people the opportunity to read the book for free so I have made the Ebook available for free for the next three days before it goes to £6.99. There is also a paperback version available if you would like a hard copy. Therefore, anybody reading this who needs it can access it for free now and over the coming days and keep it permanently. I am also sending the free link to mental health charities so they can share it with their service users. Please feel free to tag or share it with anyone you feel may benefit from it and please feel free to share the link with your family, friends, colleagues and in any groups, you are in.
If you would like to get the Ebook or paperback then here is the link:
www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B088P937P4/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_dzOWEbE5XF4FT
Also, if you would like to follow any of my new social pages then these are the links:

www.facebook.com/forhelpwithanxiety
And if you want to chat then my inbox is always open.
So yeah, I’m nervous but I’m excited and I hope if you read it, it helps you.
If you do read it and enjoy it please leave a review on Amazon so other people who are struggling will see the value in it.
