Looking After Your Black Mental Health During Lockdown!

<p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Greetings</p> <p>Welcome to this week’s podcast edition.</p> <p>This week I wanted to have a sort of carry on - on this informative tip, by trying to update the information surrounding our mental health during lockdown.  This isn’t something that’s talked about and if you were struggling with your mental health before lockdown, there will likely be a lot of worry surrounding you now and how you feel you are going to get through the next few weeks, with concerns rising about further lockdowns and without the networks and social circles you’ve come to depend on to get you through.</p> <p>So in this week’s episode, I detail the most up to date Black mental health support there is across the country, and I also provide the website details for the various organisations, so you can go straight there and get the support you need.</p> <p>If you’re finding the impact of the pandemic to be a bit of a struggle on your emotional health, or you know someone who needs that extra support, please don’t suffer in silence.            At the very least, reach out to someone whom you trust and give them a chance to show you how brilliantly caring they can be and how much they would love to hold space for you.</p> <p>You wont regret it!</p> <p>Remember to like and share information about this podcast; and also, to tell one other person about this podcast so we can reach as many people as possible.   I would also appreciate it if you could leave a me a review on iTunes  so we can make this podcast much more visible to people who are looking for us.  I would really appreciate that.</p> <p>Until next week</p> <p>Have a great week!</p> <p>Dr Asher</p> <p>          </p> <p><strong>THIS WEEKS PODCAST LINKS</strong></p> <p><strong> </strong><strong>BLACK MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT</strong></p> <p>Black Thrive</p> <p><a href= "https://www.blackthrive.org.uk/">https://www.blackthrive.org.uk/</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Sandwell African Caribbean Mental Health Foundation</p> <p><a href= "https://www.sacmhf.co.uk/">https://www.sacmhf.co
