MENTAL HEalth



The Doctors and Nurses in Cashel Medical Centre aim to provide holistic health care. We aim to look after our patient's physical, psychological, emotional health needs in a confidential and supportive setting. The mental health of our patients is of utmost importance so we strive to care for all our patients in an empathetic and caring environment. We can discuss with you the best options to help you through whatever mental health challenges you or a loved one might be facing and to direct you to the most appropriate service to assist in your recovery or referral onward for counselling, psychological or psychiatric care. Addiction and mental health issues often go hand in hand and again your GP or nurse will be here to discuss this with you and guide you on how to get help and get on the road to recovery.

Your family doctor is often the first person to approach in relation to mental health concerns and people should be encouraged to do so if their mental health is deteriorating.
Many people do attend their General Practitioner (GP) when they feel they need (or perhaps a family or friend may need) more support for their mental health but others try to struggle on and life can become a real struggle.
Help is at hand so please make the first step and get in touch.
In an emergency situation, and outside of GP hours, it is advised to contact Caredoc or attend your local accident and emergency department in your local hospital.

​Here are some numbers which will have trained counsellors available to speak to you if you feel in crisis:

What is Wellbeing:
  • Wellbeing is feeling good about yourself, the world around you and functioning well in everyday life, most of the time. Being resilient and coping with the normal stresses of life is also an important attribute of wellbeing.
  • There are many things that can influence your wellbeing. These include exercise, diet, sense of belonging, relationships, career, self-care, spirituality, money, where we live, and sense of purpose.
  • Wellbeing is much broader than simply how happy you are. It also includes how satisfied you are with your life, your sense of purpose, and how in control you feel.
  • Life can be hectic at times, but taking time to incorporate one or more of the Five Ways to Wellbeing can improve wellbeing.
Connect
Make time each day to Connect. Connect with the people around you. With family, friends, colleagues and neighbours. At home, work, school or in your local community. By staying connected and nurturing these relationships we feel happier and more secure, giving us a better sense of purpose
Be Active
Look for ways to be active everyday. Go for a walk or a run. Step outside. Cycle, play a game, garden or dance. Discover a physical activity you enjoy which suits your lifestyle and level of mobility and fitness. Research has shown being physically active can improve your mental health and wellbeing.
Take Notice
Be aware of the world around you and what you are feeling. Be Curious. Catch sight of the beautiful. Notice the changing seasons. Savour the moment whether you are walking to work, eating lunch or talking to friends. Pay attention to the present moment – to your thoughts, feelings and to the world around you.
Keep Learning
Try something new. Rediscover an old interest. Sign up for that course. Cook a new recipe. Take on a new responsibility. Setting yourself a new challenge and learning a new skill will increase your confidence which can improve your mental health and wellbeing.
Give
Giving to others is good for you. Do something nice for someone else. Thank someone. Volunteer your time or join a community group. See yourself and your happiness linked to the wider community can be incredibly rewarding and create connectedness with the people around you.
