Mental Health Awareness Week in the United Kingdom occurs the second week of May. Each year there is a new theme.
Everyone has anxiety at some point in their lives, whether preparing for a job interview or bringing up a child. It is normal to experience stress in everyday situations; however, persistent and excessive anxiety can cause serious mental health and physical issues.
Anxiety is one of the most common mental health problems in nearly every country. While a low level of stress can be a beneficial motivating force, it can sometimes take over your life.
The success of Mental Health Awareness Week is mainly due to the generous support of organizations and individuals throughout the UK who get involved by publicizing the week, organizing activities and events, and having some fun.
