Holistic and Somatic Therapy in California
Having a strong network of supportive friends, family, peers, teachers, coaches, bosses, mentors, and more is protective against mental illnesses like anxiety and depression. Strengthening your social bonds can also help you get the support you need when you are experiencing mental distress.
It's important to build a strong support system before experiencing a full-blown crisis situation. Using social media to reconnect with old friends, or joining a peer support group, can fortify your social bonds and help you feel more connected. Reaching out to others can be intimidating, but chances are that they want to talk just as much as you do!
