Today wraps up Anti-Bullying Week - but that does not mean we should stop discussing bullying and making sure we are doing what we can to support our peers! The team had a lot of fun wearing our #OddSocks - do you own a fun pair??👀🧦

Today is World Kindness Day 💛 Showing kindness towards others is a fundamental part of the ReSET groups – whether it's listening, showing empathy, or helping someone feel seen by your actions. Let’s take a moment to notice others and choose kindness today 🌸 #worldkindnessday #ReSETMentalHealth

This is anti-bullying week, pioneered by the Anti-Bullying Alliance and a particularly relevant cause for ReSET as we work with adolescents. At our conference last week, Prof. René Veenstra and Prof. Lucy Bowes presented some interesting research surrounding adolescent bullying behaviours.

Co-production – an increasingly common indicator of good and relevantly informed research. However, it should be more than a buzzword thrown around to ensure the right box is ticked🚨✔ – a belief both ReThink and ReSET strongly hold.

Wondering what the conference looked like? Well, here it is! ✨ Hosted at Anna Freud for the day, the event delved into the ReSET Project and our results, as well as touching upon school-related topics such as developmental language disorder, social networks and bullying.

Reflecting on the ReSET conference last week... Thank you to everyone who made the day brilliant, the speakers presented interesting research – including our own results showing evidence for reductions in mental health symptoms for those who received the intervention!

👋 Good morning everyone, and a very warm Mental Elf welcome to the @resetproject.bsky.social conference in London. You can follow along all day at 🌟 #ReSETMentalHealth 🌟 We are going to be talking about Relationships, Emotions & Adolescent Wellbeing. I'm André - hello! 🧵 THREAD

ReSET combines elements of interpersonal therapy with app-based cognitive-emotional training 🧠 📱. Through group sessions, young people used different “Me” and “We” strategies to consider different ways to resolve interpersonal issues and perceive others’ emotions and behaviours more positively.

OCD Self-Care / Coping Strategies Mind (buff.ly/VW4iyFt) have some brilliant, and scientifically informed, self-care coping strategies for OCD. We particularly liked these three strategies, as they are not only useful for coping with OCD but also managing general wellbeing (very on-topic for us!).

This week is OCD Awareness Week. 📊Some stats📊 OCD affects 1 in 50 people in the UK, with various factors contributing to it's onset and it presenting differently for each person affected by it.

Today marks World Mental Health Day – a day for raising awareness about mental health around the world. However, it is important to remember that mental health is important to talk about every day, not just one day per year. #WorldMentalHealthDay #HelloYellow
