Understanding the Signs of Mental Health and Money Stress

Money problems and mental health issues are sometimes linked, with one causing or influencing the other. If you feel your financial situation is impacting your mental health, you’re not alone.

Signs you may be struggling:

• You are worried about being able to pay bills and/or are not opening important letters
• Your sleep is disturbed because you’re thinking about your finances
• You feel low or anxious, thinking your financial situation is hopeless

Where can you go for help:

If you’re worried about your mental health, you should see your family doctor or GP. They should be able to give you advice about treatment and perhaps refer you to another local professional who may be able to help. There are also charities and companies with staff or volunteers who can offer advice or just listen to you.
