Mental Health Awareness Week 2023 is all about anxiety. LawCare have invited a panel of legal professionals to share their stories of coping with anxiety.

We all know what it’s like to feel anxious from time to time. It’s a normal human response to feel tense, nervous and perhaps fearful at the thought of a stressful event or decision you’re facing.

However, if your feelings of anxiety are very strong, or last for a long time, it can be overwhelming. You might find that you’re worrying all the time, perhaps about things that are a regular part of everyday life, or about things that aren’t likely to happen.

You may regularly experience unpleasant physical and psychological effects of anxiety, and maybe panic attacks.

The panel understand what it is like to live with anxiety and how it can affect (or be exacerbated by) the pressures of life in the law.

The webinar is an opportunity for you to hear how anxiety affected them, and what strategies helped them to manage their symptoms.
