Merry Christmas from Mentally Yours! Here’s how to look after your mental health on Christmas day

IT’S CHRISTMAAAAAS.

Naturally, we here at Mentally Yours, Metro.co.uk’s weekly podcast on all things mental health, have created a lovely Christmas special for you to unwrap. Aren’t you all lucky?

Rather than tips on cooking the turkey or how to protect your Christmas tree from scratchy cats, our Christmas edition focuses on your mental wellbeing.
