May Mental Health Awareness – 5 signs to look out for in yourself and others

“There is a whole range of mental health, from feeling good and being able to do what we like, to needing extra help with thoughts or feelings or behaviours that have got out of hand.” Dr Lucy Maddox

The Brain Collective is on hand to intercept and address a spectrum of mental health disorders and has been doing so for some 13 years.

Our innovative methods have been created to identify, address and map mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety and stress along with the lesser known bipolar and obsessive compulsive disorders.

75% of our clinics treat mental health, namely anxiety and our team work to stabilise our clients’ nervous systems through our intelligent technologies.

As we continue to focus on bettering people’s lives with our neurotherapies, we consider why mental health is so important for us to be functional as human beings.

When ignored, mental health can be debilitating for people, making even the smaller tasks in life difficult. We see clients who have practiced the “just get on” philosophy for years and years, and the outcome of that is often a worsened condition.

Looking out for both ourselves and one another is what matters and if we can improve our consciousness to recognise when something might not be right, we can change things.

Key signs someone’s mental health isn’t as good as it might be…

Social anxiety – less propensity to socialise and the thought of a social occasion feels overwhelming and almost unbearable Lack of motivation – finding it hard to galvanise oneself into action Low mood – struggling to get excited about anything, even things which usually would excite Changes in mood – things which wouldn’t usually bother, feel irritating and reactions are perhaps disproportionate Difficulty concentrating – being able to focus or make a decision is increasingly hard

If any of these symptoms ring true for you or for someone you care about, we are here to help you identify if there is a problem which could be solved through neurofeedback.

Our non-invasive solutions are a way to rewire and retrain the brain into new thoughts patterns for good, creating a new chapter and a better life.
