Tomorrow is June - June is PTSD Awareness Month💚
PTSD can deeply affect mental health—causing anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and feeling constantly on edge.
Let’s show understanding, break the stigma, and remind people they’re not alone💚

Following our Public Consultation announcement, please complete this short survey to share your views on the priorities for mental health services in West Dunbartonshire.
Due to national budget cuts, some services may be reduced, so your input is important. It only takes around 5 minutes and will help Stepping Stones co-produce the best possible support for local people.
