Why is my wellbeing important? 

Good wellbeing means that I can;

• Feel and express a range of different emotions
• Have confidence and a positive self-esteem
• Have good friendships with others
• Cope when things may change for me
•  

It is normal to feel sad, angry and low sometimes, these are all normal feelings but with low self-esteem, they are more difficult to cope with.

What can affect my wellbeing?

None of us are the same; what affects your wellbeing may be different for someone else. There are some situations that can affect all of us;

• the care and support you get at home and school
• your physical health – how much sleep you get, what you eat and drink
• how you are treated by others
• being able to recognise and talk to others about your emotions
