57% of young people have felt an overwhelming sense of stress due to fear of making mistakes. As you can see by this video, majority of young people will struggle with stress due to fear of making mistakes. The truth is, we all make mistakes but nowadays, there is a huge pressure on young people to preform well in exams, act a certain way, look a certain way, ‘fit in’ and get everything ‘right’ that it can be so suffocating for them and it becomes overwhelming. No one should ever be faced with this level of pressure, especially not young people who are navigating their way through growing up. Back in May, we visited @Outwood Post-16 to give a presentation about our services but also raise awareness about mental health. After the presentation, we got amazing feedback from the teachers, saying that the pupils really enjoyed our session. Teachers also said the pupils were the most interactive they have seen them. On top of that, later on in the month pupils came to their teachers to raise concerns and to talk about some of the topics raised in the session. Thank you to OGA Post-16 for having us. If you would like us to come into your workplace and deliver a presentation and workshop session, please email manmatters@gasped.co.uk. 💛💚 #manmatters#gasped#MentalHealth#wakefield#OGA#outwoodgrange#outwood#Wakefield#support#workshops#school#college#students#communities#community#pressure#endthestigma#emotional#Wellbeing#statistics#exams#stress#fyp#foryou#foryoupage Music: https://open.spotify.com/track/5n6l4Q0qiVOQ55B0OvOfVr?si=c94ca5812e414a6f
