POOR MENTAL HEALTH IS NOTHING NEW….

Last Sunday it was World Mental Health Day (October 10) and I wrote about it as did many of my clients.

I shared some experiences which were very recent and suddenly out of the blue an incident long forgotten popped into my head. I realised that poor mental health has always been there however, in the 1960s, 70s and 80s we tended to call it different things.
