IT CANNOT BE OVERSTATED: IT MATTERS THAT PEOPLE MATTER
YOU matter, so does your mental health.
One in five people experience mental illness each year, yet as recently as 2021, only about 47% of those individuals received treatment.
Self-care and support are key components of mental health. At My Therapy Matters we encourage you to start a self-care program that prioritizes physical activity, a balanced and healthy diet, sleep and setting boundaries to help you feel comfortable. It’s also important to keep in touch with your loved ones and friends and offer a listening ear to anyone who is experiencing feelings of stress, depression or isolation.
For a mental health crisis, visit www.coloradocrisisservices.org or call 1-844-493-8255. Crisis centers and phone lines are open 24/7.
