Relationships

Feeling connected to others can have a significant positive impact on your mental health and wellbeing.

Humans have a fundamental need to interact with others, to be socially active and feel connected. Being connected to others can be a protective factor against anxiety and depression, and can increase feelings of happiness and self-worth. Strong healthy relationships can also help to strengthen your immune system, help you recover from disease, and may even lengthen your life.

The Squad Health and Wellbeing Initiative helped me get back on track after a few big life events occurred that rattled me a little more than expected. Through this program, I was able to access counseling, that without the help of Squad, I would not have prioritised due to the financial burden of ongoing treatment. If I had not been able to access the program, Iā€™m not sure I would have been able to maintain my full-time job and manage my work effectively.
