Things I Have Learnt Working in Mental Health

- Some people don't have empathy. Nothing is ever their fault. If you got hit, that's down to you.

- The mind is a brilliantly scary thing, unique to each person and sometimes impossible to understand.

- Patience is a virtue.

- Stick and stones...

- Everyone needs to feel important.

- Sometimes big men are scared of small spiders.

- Sometimes it's hard.

- Know your exits.

- You can't fix something alone.

- I don't do blood. Ever.

- Routine is easy and sometimes hard to overcome.

 - Medication does help.

- Anything is a potential weapon.

- He who talks the loudest is usually the most irritating.

- If someone is angry at you, it is not usually you which is the problem.

- There is such a thing as the wrong place at the wrong time.

- Know when to be assertive and when to leave things be.

- Talking can sometimes be the best therapy.

- Your history makes you.

- Everyone needs time out.

- Strength is useful.

- Don't judge a book by its cover.

- Listen to your instinct. It's there for a reason. If something doesn't feel right, then it's probably not.

- When required, nip it in the bud.

- Hate is a very real thing.

- People think differently. What's OK to you may not be OK to someone else.

- Self-expression comes in many different forms.
