Today we're joined by members of Particip8 (a group of people with a personal interest in mental health for young people and a passion for improving mental health services) who share their experiences of living with anxiety and ways they've learnt to manage and live with it.

Living with Anxiety

From the Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust

In this show we will dip in to a different department within NSFT each fortnight to hear their current thoughts on many aspects of mental health. One week we might be wrapped up in research with one of our psychologists talking about what causes PTSD in children and how we might be able to help, next we will be absorbed by wellbeing and how a few little changes can make things a bit more manageable. School and Parent support have the best and most honest advice about how to support your children and teens at school and at home and the recovery college will offer unique insights in to subjects such as compassion aiding recovery.
