Cloak of invisibly

Tuesday was world mental health day. You may not have noticed. Mental health issues including stress, depression, anxiety and other serious conditions accounted for 15.8 million working days lost (11.5% of the total) in the UK in 2016.
Mental ill health is like a spiders Web, and spreads out to include a wide range of conditions and everyone who suffers mental ill health will have a different experience of it, and will have different ways of coping. Here in the place I call home 1 in 4 of us will be visited by the black dog. It is often unspoken, unseen, unacknowledged. We need, together, to 'out' it. Please do all you can to stand with those who suffer and those who care for them.
