More than 5 years ago, I lost my wife Kate because of cancer. It came as a large -scale surprise, because for several months we were told that he would defeat him, only 2 days before he died if we were told that he would not survive.

Over the past 5 years my mental health has experienced ups and downs. I equated by being in a small boat in the sea -sometimes the waves approached my extraordinary boat, so I understand how close I am sometimes, but over time I have learned to find a calmer waters with my boat and there are a number of coping mechanisms that I found are useful but here are the top 4 of me –
Talking about it – I am very vocal about my mental health, both online and directly, general greetings about “how you” often make me say “not too good / struggle”, and you will be surprised how often it leads to a truly healthy and honest conversation from both parties.

Saying for everything as simple as it sounds, if I am asked to do something either professionally or private, I say yes and it leads to a few pleasant moments, but I remain or get involved until I feel the opposite, see listening to my body or mind above – if I want to go home after 2 drinks I go home.
I also want to mark some resources for anyone who struggles.
