He creates a warm and welcoming environment, making it easy to open up and discuss difficult topics. His friendly demeanour puts me at ease, allowing for honest and productive sessions. I particularly appreciate his collaborative approach. Not only does he offer insightful suggestions, but he also encourages me to explore different perspectives, helping me develop solutions that feel right for me.\nThanks to Szabolcs's guidance, I've made significant progress in addressing a number of challenges. He's equipped me with valuable tools and strategies to navigate difficult situations. More importantly, he's helped me gain a deeper understanding of underlying issues from my childhood. This newfound self-awareness has been instrumental in moving forward and building a more fulfilling life.\nIf you're looking for a supportive and skilled counsellor, I highly recommend Szabolcs.

Imagine that you did choose a form of exercise and gave it a go. What\u2019s next?<\/p>\n<p>The following tips may worth considering:<\/p>\n<p>1. It takes time \u23f0<\/p>\n<p>First of all, remember that any kind of physical activity could be difficult at first, and it may take time to build up your confidence. During this period, it is completely normal to slip in an out of feeling frustrated and feeling great about what you had achieved in your chosen exercise. As I mentioned it on day 2, just be yourself, follow your own pace, and do what feels right for you. If a particular activity is not for you, you can always choose not to continue with it.<\/p>\n<p>\u26a0\ufe0fWarning!\u26a0\ufe0f<br \/>\nOver-exercising is a thing! Just do what your body can handle.<\/p>\n<p>2. Diet and exercise \ud83c\udf7d<\/p>\n<p>With exercise, your energy intake may change as well \u2013 following an appropriate diet can form an important part of exercising (e.g., with a balanced diet, you may have more energy to engage with a physical activity).<\/p>\n<p>3. Check your sources \ud83e\udd14<\/p>\n<p>Whether it is exercise or diet, it is not easy to be a beginner, especially as you may not be as experienced in how to do things, and there is a lot of misleading\/incorrect information on the internet. Not everything works for everyone \u2013 do some research to find reliable and trustworthy sources of information.<\/p>\n<p>4. Don&#8217;t forget to rest \ud83d\ude0c<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to mental health, \u201cself-care\u201d is an often-used term. Exercise can be a form of self-care, and so can be taking a rest from exercise. You can always alternate between different forms of physical activities; for example, you may engage with some moderately intense exercise on one day, and go for a gentle walk on another day.<\/p>\n<p>+1 Every little counts \u2705<\/p>\n<p>Even a little bit of exercise is more than nothing. You can consider doing what you can, even if it is parking a little bit farther from your workplace and adding an extra two minutes to your daily walk. \u26a0\ufe0fFinally, remind yourself that skipping a day of exercise will not take away from the progress that you have made up until that point!\u26a0\ufe0f<\/p>\n<p>Do you want to learn some more about physical activity and mental health?

Today, I want to share with you some tips on how to choose a physical activity.<\/p>\n<p>Step 1. Get yourself a pen and paper and write a list of all the physical activities and sports you can think off.<\/p>\n<p>Step 2. Go through this list one-by-one, and apply the following criteria:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Availability: is the activity or sport available in my area?<br \/>\n\u2022 Accessibility: is the activity or sport accessible for me? Do I have the necessary equipment? How do I get to the place? Is there a fee involved? Do I have the funds for it?<br \/>\n\u2022 Enjoyment: Would I enjoy this activity or sport?<br \/>\n\u2022 Time: Do I have the time for it (e.g., do I have other obligations that could make it more difficult for me to find the time for it?)?<\/p>\n<p>Step 3. If you have some crosses, it does not mean that you cannot engage with an activity or sport. Think about ways to potentially make those crosses into ticks.<\/p>\n<p>Step 4. Go and give it a go! You can do it on your own, or you can buddy up with someone; you could also join a group, even if you don\u2019t know anyone there yet.<\/p>\n<p>Let me know in the comments below what would be on your list.<\/p>\n<p>Do you want to learn some more about physical activity and mental health?

If so, it is not a coincidence.<\/p>\n<p>Studies have shown that physical activity increases positive moods (e.g., being enthusiastic or more alert). During exercise, our body releases chemicals (e.g., dopamine and endorphin) that do not only alleviate pain and lower stress levels, but they also increase our positive moods. Once we are in a \u2018better\u2019 mood, we may also think about ourselves in a more positive way, so our self-esteem could also increase, not even mentioning a sense of achievement that we may experience after exercise. No wonder why it could also help us sleep better (feeling less stressed and more positive in our mood could leave less space for worrying).<\/p>\n<p>\ud83e\uddcf\ud83c\udffc\u200d\u2640\ufe0fOf course, there are things to consider before deciding to engage with some exercises. For example:<br \/>\n&#8211; level of ability and fitness: you don\u2019t have to become a marathon runner; start small and gradually increase the difficulty of exercises.<br \/>\n&#8211; comparison could be a good motivator, but it could also lead to a sense of failure or dissatisfaction; just be yourself and follow your own pace.<\/p>\n<p>Different mental health conditions would also need to be taken into account.<\/p>\n<p>For example, are you taking medication that could potentially make you feel tired? Again, follow your own pace and work around what feels right for you. Do you experience anxiety or panic-attacks that make it more difficult for you to go out and exercise or to meet others in a social context? You can overcome your anxiety and work on gradual ways to introduce or reintroduce some form of exercise into your daily routine.

This report highlights that \u201cYoung people today have the (\u2026) poorest mental health of any age group\u2026\u201d (young women are more than one-and-a-half times more likely to suffer from mental health difficulties than young men). One of the key findings of this report suggests that young people (between the ages of 18 to 24) with mental health problems are more likely to be out of work compared to their \u2018healthy\u2019 peers. They also found that \u201cnon-graduates\u201d with mental health difficulties were almost twice as much likely to be \u201cworkless\u201d, compared to non-graduates without mental health difficulties. For a younger age group (between the ages of 11 to 16), they found that about one student out of eight (approximately 12%) missed more than 15 days of school in the autumn term in 2023; whereas, the number of \u2018healthier\u2019 classmates missing 15 days of school in that term was about one in fifty (about 2%).<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember529\" class=\"ember-view reader-content-blocks__paragraph\">So, in a colloquial way, (title repetition alert) are young people &#8220;f!*ked&#8221;\ud83d\ude4a\ud83d\ude46\ud83c\udffb\ud83e\udd26\ud83c\udffc?<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember530\" class=\"ember-view reader-content-blocks__paragraph\">No, they are not! Are they struggling? Yes, I think some young people are.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember531\" class=\"ember-view reader-content-blocks__paragraph\">Okay, without theatrics: the report\u2019s findings are serious; they suggest that some young people are already missing significant time off school due to mental health difficulties. In their later life, these young people may potentially experience further difficulties, such as finding a job or having a variety of options in the labour market. The transition to adulthood is already a difficult process, and mental health struggles seem to make it even more difficult for some young people.What (probably) does not help this situation is the fact that many children and young people in secondary school and post-16 settings did not have access to mental health support within school (the exact figure was 44% in 2023). What may exacerbate the difficulty for young people in having a variety of options in the work sector is the fact that those students who are not planning to go into higher education receive significantly less careers advice (in 2022, it was 22% compared to 44% of those who were planning to go to university).<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember532\" class=\"ember-view reader-content-blocks__paragraph\">In my psychological therapy practice, I work with children and young people (and adults) in and out of educational settings. Some of the issues my clients reported to me are very similar to the findings of this report. What I aim to do is to support them through therapy, but I also find it important to acknowledge that it is the adults around young people (e.g., teachers, parents, family members, professionals etc.) who have the privilege, power, and responsibility to provide youngsters with the mental health support and character education they may need to create opportunities for themselves for today and for tomorrow as well.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember533\" class=\"ember-view reader-content-blocks__paragraph\">You can download the full report from here: <a class=\"app-aware-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.resolutionfoundation.org\/publications\/weve-only-just-begun\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\" data-test-app-aware-link=\"\">https:\/\/www.resolutionfoundation.org\/publications\/weve-only-just-begun\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-7 col-sm-12 col-xs-12 col-lg-4\">\n<div class=\"bg-box\">\n<p class=\"\" style=\"margin-bottom: 25px;\"><iframe class=\"lazyload\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Ffindyourpacetherapy%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0XAruku1zeuA8r5WQuoKqtbckUd5kZkqQ1GVYXzdaUUi34b5tsBbeWKFUuKT5ZeK9l&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"729\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"color2-color bg-blockquote\"><p>&#8220;Young people today have the (\u2026) poorest mental health of any age group\u2026&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row color2-background-color color-2-text-contrast bg-background-color\" style=\"padding-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 20px;\">\n<div class=\"col-md-7 col-sm-12 col-xs-12 col-lg-4\">\n<div class=\"bg-box\">\n<p class=\"\" style=\"margin-bottom: 25px;\"><iframe class=\"lazyload\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Ffindyourpacetherapy%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0yTz7qyZsQnBbAenZZ3ppTKvfB85Vffq9mzCsLjKV7GFhpqYSE8VnDREQQj7dXHYql&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"571\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"color2-color bg-blockquote\"><p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&#8220;&#8230; 8 out of 10 girls, and at least 4 out of 10 boys, receive unwanted videos or pictures with explicit content &#8230;&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-5 col-sm-12 col-xs-12 col-lg-8\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<div dir=\"ltr\" class=\"reader-article-content reader-article-content--content-blocks\">\n<div class=\"xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\"><strong>Is she laughing or is she crying? &#8211; About sexual harassment and online sexual abuse.

The request to complete this review came from the government after thousands of people sent in testimonies about abuse to the website called Everyone\u2019s Invited (\u201ca movement committed to eradicating rape culture\u201d).<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">It is important to note that the review emphasized that findings should not be applied to every single school across England. It is possible that similar issues may or may not happen in other educational facilities. However, from all those schools\/colleges visited by Ofsted, sexual harassment was indeed a significant problem in every single one of them.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">So, what did they find?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">For example, they found that sexual harassment and online sexual abuse have possibly been happening in children and young people\u2019s lives for a long time. For so long, that many of them now are accustomed to it. The results show that at least 8 out of 10 girls, and at least 4 out of 10 boys, receive unwanted videos or pictures with explicit content \u201ca lot or sometimes\u201d. Children and young people in this review reported that they are so used to sexual harassment and online sexual abuse, that they do not even want to report it any more. The report also specifies reasons why they do not want to report these incidents. They said that since these behaviours do not seem like a big deal to them, they do not want to get their peers into trouble for such \u2018small\u2019 things, and they do not want to be excluded from their friendship groups either for reporting these problems. Another reason, they said, is that adults may react to such news in ways that would not encourage further reports of sexual harassment and online sexual abuse. For example, they thought that they would simply not be believed, or if so, then they would be blamed, or by talking about the incident they would lose control over the situation.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">What would happen if these behaviours were reported?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">I may be wrong; I suppose schools would need to investigate and if they deemed it necessary, they would need to report it to the authorities, for example the police. Ofsted also spoke to school and college leaders about it, and they said that they are unsure about what to do if a police investigation does not lead to prosecution or conviction. So, if the children\/young people report sexual harassment and online sexual abuse <span class=\"x3nfvp2 x1j61x8r x1fcty0u xdj266r xhhsvwb xat24cr xgzva0m xxymvpz xlup9mm x1kky2od\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"xz74otr lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t25\/1.5\/16\/27a1.png\" alt=\"\u27a1\ufe0f\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"xz74otr lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t25\/1.5\/16\/27a1.png\" alt=\"\u27a1\ufe0f\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><\/noscript><\/span> then schools have to investigate and potentially report it <span class=\"x3nfvp2 x1j61x8r x1fcty0u xdj266r xhhsvwb xat24cr xgzva0m xxymvpz xlup9mm x1kky2od\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"xz74otr lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t25\/1.5\/16\/27a1.png\" alt=\"\u27a1\ufe0f\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"xz74otr lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t25\/1.5\/16\/27a1.png\" alt=\"\u27a1\ufe0f\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><\/noscript><\/span> then the authorities start their own investigation <span class=\"x3nfvp2 x1j61x8r x1fcty0u xdj266r xhhsvwb xat24cr xgzva0m xxymvpz xlup9mm x1kky2od\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"xz74otr lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t25\/1.5\/16\/27a1.png\" alt=\"\u27a1\ufe0f\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"xz74otr lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t25\/1.5\/16\/27a1.png\" alt=\"\u27a1\ufe0f\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><\/noscript><\/span> finally, if the investigation is not fruitful, then what? As I am writing this, I am thinking about the child\/young person, their families and friends who are at the centre of this potentially lengthy investigation to get \u2018justice\u2019. I imagine their psychological development may very much be different if they did not have to go through it all. I also wonder how much of the uncertainty of the outcome could discourage reports being made in the first place.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Make no mistake; schools and colleges are not in an easy position, they have to tackle these behaviours there-and-then (not even mentioning that many of these pictures\/videos\/comments may be sent\/made outside of school; whose responsibility is it then?). I have not checked the requirements and curriculum for relationships, sex and health education (RSHE), but according to those students who spoke to Ofsted about it, they did not receive the type of RSHE that would cover their day-to-day experiences. Many students I worked with in my private practice told me before that they want to learn skills at school that they could utilise in life, such as how to pay taxes. I guess they could use a bit more updated practical knowledge when it comes to acceptable and unacceptable behaviour as well.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Shortly after I read the report, I listened to Woman\u2019s Hour on BBC Sounds where they discussed sexual harassment in the workplace. I guess if someone learns at a very young age not to respond to\/report inappropriate explicit pictures\/videos\/comments from others, then they may as well carry over this behaviour to the workplace. Some of the problems they were discussing on this show lie within the structure of the previous sentence: \u2018THEY\u2019 will carry over this behaviour to the workplace \u2013 \u2018THEY\u2019, who are the \u2018victims\u2019. This mentality may subconsciously put the responsibility onto the person who received the pictures\/videos\/comments at school or in the workplace (I guess this example may work better within the context of \u2018rape culture\u2019). No wonder why girls and boys in the review said that they rather not report incidents.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">What is the solution?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">It is in progress, I guess. The above-mentioned rapid review is a good start, as it sheds light on the existence of a problem (I do not think it was very much hidden before, though). RSHE training in schools is also crucial, perhaps with changes to be made to the curriculum after listening to children and young people. After all, those who want to help shape this system will only find out about what the problem is if the children and young people let them know about these. Another possible solution is to provide training to school\/college staff members, so that the issues can be dealt with better there. Rehabilitation programs for the perpetrators are also a good possibility. I think it is also important to raise awareness as that could lead to words being put into practice, such as the #metoo movement (although, in Woman\u2019s Hour they mentioned that no new law has been introduced since the movement started and effectively not much has changed, apart from the consultation that was undertaken by the government).<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Personally, I think that it is a complex phenomenon\/problem, and it could be approached from many different angles. I did not aim to cover every aspect of it at all, rather I want to raise awareness to the existence of the issue and possible solutions.
