Everyone can have good and bad days. But as we get older, changes in our lives, such as bereavement, illness or retirement, can make us more vulnerable. This could lead to mental health problems, such as depression or anxiety. This guide explains what mental health is and what might cause mental health problems. It mainly focuses on two of the most common conditions - depression and anxiety - but it's important to remember there are many other mental health problems. The guide also has suggestions about where you can go for help - both practical and financial - and things you could try to help yourself and stay well.
