Feeling that back to school ready heat?

The night before school:
🤪Uniforms washed
🤪Bags packed
🤪Shoes found (somehow!)
🤪Lunchbox supplies purchased
🤪Books located
🤪Alarm set

And then comes the first morning…
🤯"WHERE ARE YOUR SHOES?!"
🤯"HAS ANYONE SEEN THE LUNCHBOX?!"
🤯"WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE!"

If you're feeling completely drained, frazzled or ready for a holiday after the holidays, you're definitely not alone.

The back-to-school juggle can be a lot — especially when you're trying to manage work, family, appointments, sport, homework and everything else life throws at you.

So, while you're making sure the kids are looked after, don't forget about you.

💪Take five minutes when you can
💪Catch up on sleep
💪Get outside for a walk
💪Put the phone down for a little while
💪Have a chat with someone

And if you're feeling persistently overwhelmed, anxious or low, talk to your GP.

You've got this. One school day at a time!

You can love parenting and still find it tough.

Parenthood can bring incredible joy — but it can also bring stress, exhaustion, worry and feelings of being overwhelmed.

If you're struggling, you're not failing.

Making time for your own mental health is an important part of looking after your family too.

Talk to your partner, a trusted friend, family member or your GP.

You deserve support too. Phone: 02 5525 3800

Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness Week is an important opportunity to raise awareness, challenge stigma, and remind people that BPD is a real and treatable mental health condition. Too often, people living with BPD are misunderstood or judged because of the intensity of their emotions and experiences. This week, we can promote compassion, understanding, and hope—while recognising the strength of those with lived experience and the importance of accessible, appropriate support. Everyone deserves to be heard, understood, and treated with dignity.

🔎 Detect high blood pressure early
📈 Monitor changes over time
💊 Know when lifestyle changes or treatment may be needed
