About 1 in 5 youths aged 15–35 reported having experienced cyberbullying, according to the 2024 National Youth Mental Health Study by IMH. And while it happens online, its effects go beyond just the screen. Cyberbullying leaves a mark on a young person's confidence, relationships and mental wellbeing.

For parents and caregivers, recognising the signs early can make a difference. Changes in mood, withdrawing from friends, avoiding social media or becoming upset after going online may all be chances to start a conversation.

Awareness is uncomfortable sometimes. You start noticing the comments you used to miss. The words that do more harm than people realise. But that discomfort is also where change begins.

Hope in mental healthcare doesn't come from one treatment alone, but from continually pushing the boundaries of care and creating more possibilities for recovery.

Following a successful pilot, IMH introduced intravenous ketamine in August 2025 for patients whose depression has not improved after trying at least two types of antidepressants. Alongside electroconvulsive therapy and transcranial magnetic stimulation, it offers another treatment option, bringing new hope through innovation and evidence-based care.

Do you remember counting down the minutes to recess, excitedly deciding which snack or drink to buy from the school canteen?

With support from the Woodbridge Hospital Charity Fund, our volunteers recreate the same joy for our patients through the Mobile Canteen programme!

Volunteers, alongside our nurses, create a warm and engaging environment while guiding the patients through the differently priced items, practising basic numeracy skills and completing purchases with vouchers. This programme offers patients a sense of choice, independence, and connection.

Help us bring moments of joy, choice, and connection to patients through the Mobile Canteen programme. Because everyone deserves something to look forward to.

The best mental health conversations don't always happen in a clinic. Sometimes they happen in the middle of an argument, at the dinner table, or somewhere you least expect. Celestee sees every unexpected moment as an opportunity to explore perspectives and to slowly shift the way people think about mental health.

Asking for help doesn't always sound like asking for help. Sometimes it's just: "Play one round of Mobile Legends with me?"
