In today's fast paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life and forget to take care of ourselves. But just like physical health, mental health is crucial to our over all well-being.
Attitudes and awareness have improved vastly in recent years but there is still a lot of unanswered questions and general misundertanding when it comes to mental health.
In this podcast Andrew and Louise chat with Mary Watkins, a local mental health counsellor. We find out some personal issues Andrew and Louise have with their mental health. Talking and discussing it you realise that we all suffer sometimes with our mental health and by supporting each other we help cope with our feelings and improve our mental well-being.

W. H. DAVIES - Leisure
WHAT is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?—
No time to stand beneath the boughs,
And stare as long as sheep and cows:
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass:
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night:
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance:
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began?
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare
