We're talking about mental health problems. | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
And the super hero vet helping animals walk again. | :00:14. | :00:30. | |
First, we all feel angry, worried or sad at times. | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
But when those feelings start affecting our daily lives, | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
It's a sign of a mental health problem, and it's thought one in ten | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
They're harder to spot than other health problems | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
But many people find it really hard to talk about mental health. | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
Newsround has made a special film about this that | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
It's presented by Josh who wants us all to know how important | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
We'll chat to him in a sec, but first, watch this. | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
I'm Josh, I'm 14 and I love playing hockey. | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
I'm just like you, except for one thing. I've got a mental health | :01:14. | :01:21. | |
problem. Mental health is big news right now. Everyone's talking about | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
it. Mental health Mental health. Mental Holly Wells... Newspapers, | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
celebrities, politicians, even Royalty. It's OK to suffer as long | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
as you talk about it. So you would think it would be easy for me to | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
talk about the problems. It's not. I didn't tell anyone how I was feeling | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
for over a year and things got pretty bad. Now I want to find out | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
why it's so hard to talk about mental health problems and what's | :01:54. | :01:54. | |
being done to make it better. Josh is in the studio with us this | :01:55. | :02:08. | |
morning. Good to finally meet you, Josh, I watched the team put your | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
special together. Happy to be here? Cool. Good stuff. Why did you think | :02:12. | :02:23. | |
it was important to talk about it? The moment I told my dad I felt | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
immediately tonnes better because it's a massive weight taken off your | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
shoulders. It's important to get the message out that the earlier you | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
talk about it, the easier it is to deal with. You story is being turned | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
into an animation. Shall we take a look? Have a look at this. When I | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
was 11, I started to worry about bad things happening. The only thing | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
that made me feel better was washing my hands. I'd wash them all the | :02:50. | :02:57. | |
time. I didn't think anything was wrong. I just thought I was a bit | :02:58. | :03:04. | |
odd. I found myself needing to write every three lines and certain | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
numbers really freaked me out. People at school noticed and asked | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
me what I was doing. I couldn't explain to them because I didn't | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
understand what was happening to me. I felt embarrassed So you felt | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
embarrassed. It took you a long time to talk to your dad in the first | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
place and tell him what was up. Why did it take that long? I think it | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
was because I didn't know what I had was OCD and I just thought that I | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
was a bit odd and I was worried that if I told someone they didn't | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
understand, I'd get shut down and would be on my own for ever. You | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
worried about your mates as well didn't you, you struggled to tell | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
one of your closest friends, how did she deal with it? She was brilliant. | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
She was very caring but didn't change the way she behaved towards | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
me, she wasn't overnice, she didn't avoid me, she kept everything the | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
same which helps mental health problems be nor more national | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
because they are normal in every day life now. -- more normal. How should | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
people deal with their friends or relatives who suffer with a mental | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
health problem? The important thing is, talk to them, but don't force it | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
on them, don't go straight up and go "have you got a mental health | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
problem", just talk to them if they are feeling anxious, sad or | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
depressed. Talking is the best way to share how you feel. Really cool | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
