Do you know how your loved ones are really feeling? Here are five signs that might mean someone is struggling emotionally and needs help and support:

  1. Their personality changes (this may be sudden or gradual).
  2. They are often agitated and irritable, and struggle to control their temper.
  3. They withdraw or isolate themselves from family and friends, and the activities they enjoy.
  4. They stop taking care of themselves, and start engaging in risky behaviour.
  5. They express a sense of hopelessness and feel overwhelmed by their circumstances.

Encourage your friends and family to speak up about their mental and emotional health, and show them you care! Remember, LifeAssist is there for you and your family*, 24/7/365.
