Youth Mental Health - Whiteboard Animations
'That Feeling When ...' is a youth mental health project which has been developed
to raise awareness of and reduce stigma around a number of common mental
health difficulties experienced by adolescents, and to provide tips and strategies
on how to improve general health and wellbeing.
Carlow Primary Care and Child Psychology Service and the Carlow Children and
Young Persons Services Committees have developed a series
of short, animated videos, each of which focuses on a different topic related to
mental health such as anxiety, stress and low mood. These videos also include
tips about using positive coping strategies such as regulation and relaxation exercises.
we were delighted to be able to work with students from a number of secondary schools in the Carlow area to create a video which introduces the campaign, briefly discusses youth mental health, and provides details of where young people can access the series of videos.
