What solutions does it offer?
Mental health problems are often hidden and show up as physical complaints. It is advisable to see a mental health nurse as soon as negative or disturbed feelings and behaviours start to interfere with everyday life.
The mental health nurse will carry out an initial mental health assessment and a health risk assessment at the appointment. The nurse helps to identify the need for further referral and works closely with the family or occupational physician, psychiatrist and psychologist. The nurse counsels clients and their relatives on mental health issues and health behaviour. The nurse teaches a range of breathing exercises and relaxation techniques to cope with stress, anxiety and tension. The nurse motivates and supports clients in their treatment journey.
Do it yourself
Mental health is something you can most influence yourself. Sometimes all it takes is a good piece of advice or a tip. Other times, self-help can help you while you wait to see a doctor. Most often, it is good to combine self-care with consultation with a specialist and other solutions.
Here are some pointers to the different self-help options available to help with a sleep problem.
