Joe Wicks : Facing my childhood Discussion
So recently a documentary was shown on BBC where Joe wicks went back and explored childhood. Joe explored how parental mental health affected his own childhood and also how the pandemic has worsened both young people and parental mental health.
A statstic that’s was said is they estimate that 6 children in every classroom have a parent with mental health and as someone who grew up looking after parents who had depression , My dad went missing for a period of time and my mum she hid her emotions and wasn’t there emotionally for me.
It also highlighted the affects on the child’s mental health whilst there is parental mental health and how there is little charities out there who look after the whole family.
I wanted to create this thread for a chance to have a discussion around the programme if you’ve watched it ♥️
If a diagnosis only means discrimination and not help, would you want it?

How is everyone getting on with this final stretch?
That time of the year has finally come around. Second year is nearly over, two more assignments to go. How is everyone else getting on? I know it is super stressful but just learn to manage your time, break things down and plan assignments. I have always found coming up with a plan of what I am writing, how many words for each paragraph ect is most beneficial to me.
Feel free to share other strategies you may use to help assist others and maybe even myself!

Re: If a diagnosis only means discrimination and not help, would you want it?
I think it would depend on whether it remains confidential or not and depends on if the condition is visible.
Re: wen u forgot things
Why do ppl set u to fail
They might feel insecure maybe within themselves, which causes them to make people feel like their a failure.
I know it's horrible being put down, especially by someone you trust but they probably have reasons behind why their doing it, of course its not okay but they probably are hurting too, but like I said they have no right to do that!

Re: Family Problems
Hello @Creativeboy23 .
Firstly I am glad you felt as if you can reach out, it is a good step! Secondly I very much relate to how you feel. Growing up my Dad always belittled me, made me feel bad and was not very nice at all and trust me I can understand why it gets to you so much. Just remember your feelings do matter and no one should make you feel bad for feeling them no matter who they are. What worked for me was simply time. Time heals and hopefully one day you and your dad will see eye to eye.
There are some things you could do for the time being-
Text 'Shout' to 85258
Speak to Childline (If you meet the age threshold)
Or contact 'KOOTH'
I do hope things start to improve for you in the future. Please keep us updated or contact us if you need someone to talk to, that's why we are here!

Re: I'm giving up on dating
Hey @LowTrekker dating can be really difficult and I'm sorry that you feel like this, but I can promise you your not alone!
You will find the person who you want to be with but this can take time. It is important to remember to still be yourself and not to feel like you have to change to find someone. It can be helpful to take a break from dating to reflect on what you are looking for in a relationship and what you have learned from your previous dating experiences. It might be helpful to take some time to focus on things you enjoy doing or even try a new activity as in the future this may be a great way to meet new people
I understand that it can feel like there is a lot of pressure to be in a relationship especially when you are surrounded by others who are, but the most important thing to remember is that there is no rush to find someone. It is much better to find a person well suited to you than to feel like you have to change to suit another person
I hope everything turns out great for u!
