If you’re finding this season difficult, please know you’re not alone—and support is available. Taking care of your mental health is just as important as looking after your physical health, especially during this busy time.
Marian Centre is open throughout the holidays and accepting adult (18+) inpatient admissions for those who need extra mental health support. If you feel you need more help than usual, speak to your GP today about a referral. Getting support early can make a big difference.
Mental Health Tips for the Holiday Season
While professional support is important, here are some simple steps you can take to care for your mental health:
- Stay Connected – Reach out to friends or family, even if it’s just a quick message or call.
- Set Realistic Expectations – The holidays don’t have to be perfect. Focus on what matters most to you.
- Take Breaks – Give yourself permission to rest and recharge.
- Limit Alcohol and Stimulants – These can worsen anxiety or low mood.
- Seek Help Early – If you’re struggling, don’t wait—talk to your GP or a mental health professional.
