"2026 World Mental Health Day
About Mental Health Month and World Mental Health Day
Mental Health Month is held in October each year, with World Mental Health Day taking place on 10 October.

This is an important moment to raise awareness of mental health, reduce stigma and encourage people to seek support when they need it.

It’s also an opportunity to pause, check in with ourselves and those around us, and reflect on how we can look after our own mental health and wellbeing."

Borderline Personality Disorder Week 2026

From BPD Awareness Week
"Today, 1st October marks the beginning of BPD Awareness Week, a time to increase understanding, challenge stigma, and promote hope for people living with borderline personality disorder (BPD), their families, carers, supporters, and communities.

This year's theme, "Connection Changes Outcomes: In BPD, Every Interaction Matters," reminds us that recovery is not built on treatments alone. Compassion, understanding, validation, and genuine human connection can have a profound impact on someone's wellbeing and recovery journey.

Every conversation matters. Every interaction matters. Every opportunity to listen without judgement matters.

While awareness weeks are important, meaningful change cannot be confined to seven days on the calendar. Increasing understanding of BPD must happen in our workplaces, schools, health services, community organisations, and everyday relationships throughout the entire year.

Together, we can create communities where people affected by BPD are met with understanding instead of stigma, support instead of judgement, and connection instead of exclusion.

As we celebrate BPD Awareness Week, we invite everyone to keep the conversation going beyond this week. Learning, listening, and connecting are actions that can change outcomes every day of the year."
