We created a mental health guide for the Polish community living in Wrexham, Flintshire, and Denbighshire. It provides information about a number of mental health illnesses and problems, outlining their causes, symptoms, treatment methods, and contact details for the organisations providing support locally and nationally.

 

The guide is written in Polish. It's based mainly on information published by the NHS.

 

The guide covers the following topics:

​

• what is mental health

• depression

• anxiety

• post-traumatic stress disorder

• eating disorders

• obsessive-compulsive disorder

• borderline personality disorder

• substance misuse - drugs and alcohol

• gambling

• organisations' contact details

The project was financed by The North West Wales Community Cohesion Fund.
