Stress is part of life. It is something we all experience from time to time. Sometimes it reflects our own busy lifestyles or key moments such as exams, moving house, organising an event, or coping with a bereavement. Often it is associated with work: meeting a deadline, dealing with difficult people, or meeting stretching targets.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Performers put their heart and soul into their art, and can be subject to highly personal attacks and criticism. The tone and language of reviews, or commentary on social media, can be bruising and severe. Everyone is a critic. All of this adds to the stress and anxiety suffered by people in the performing arts.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
I have long argued for the arts to have the recognition and funding they need, not only because they brighten our lives, but also because they make a tangible contribution to our national economy.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
If you walk into A&E with a broken bone you expect it to be fixed. If you need help because you've got a mental health condition you should get that help and support.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
We strive for equality and equality in mental health matters as much as anything else. I see it as an imperative, not a choice.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Twitter has made some improvements on the site and it's important that you can report people - but when you are getting the level of abuse I was, it's an onerous task reporting each and every person.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Online hate needs to be taken as seriously as offline hate - but it isn't.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
The Liberal Democrats are unequivocal in wanting to stop Brexit and are committed to securing Britain's future as a tolerant, open and inclusive society.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
If we can't behave and speak in tune with our values, then they aren't really our values.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Banning smoking in vehicles with children in them will help protect them from the misery of smoking-related diseases, from cancer to asthma and emphysema.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
If you don't support people with mental illnesses they are more likely to develop a physical illness too and that is challenging.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
I suppose I have been contending with issues surrounding my safety and security for years.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
When I started my undergraduate course at Birmingham University, as a Jewish student it was a natural step to join the Union of Jewish Students (UJS).
Quote by -Luciana Berger
As Liberal Democrats, our plan is to stop Brexit and with it the nurse tax and other barriers to E.U. nurses coming to work in our NHS.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Nothing undermines faith in our political system than politicians going back on their word.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
It is overwhelmingly women who will plug the gaps in care provision, sacrificing paid employment to look after family members.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
A failing social care system will have long-lasting repercussions for all, but it is women who are likely to be worst hit.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
I am anxious that, in some areas, changes across Government departments are making things worse for our nation's mental health.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
The fact that some people are not as able to communicate concerns about their care must never mean that any less attention is paid to their treatment - or their death.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
In order to really give mental health the focus and attention it deserves, we need to bring together and integrate all the services that provide women with the care they need. This includes the mental and physical health services, as well as social care.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
I can't think of any mother who would think twice about discussing the changes that happen to their body during pregnancy. But on top of this, we need to reach a point where they're comfortable talking about what might happen to their mind.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
One in five women experience a mental health condition during pregnancy, or in the year after giving birth. It can affect any woman. And it can be devastating.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
By creating a generation of vulnerable people, especially children, with a poor, irregular diet, we are storing up a public health time bomb.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Food poverty exists because of unemployment, low wages, high costs of heating, as well as problems at the DWP including delays in receiving social security, and the cruel and unfair Bedroom Tax.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
The point of a mental health first aider is to be a champion for good mental health in the workplace, to provide a safe port-of-call for anyone wanting to talk about their mental health, and to offer signposting to available expert advice and professional services.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Mental health first aiders are not designed to replace mental health professionals, or to provide services on the cheap, any more than current first aiders replace paramedics or heart surgeons.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
We enjoy a growing awareness and literacy around the symptoms of and remedies for mental illness. Thanks to brave public figures and persistent campaigners, much of the ignorance and stigma has been reduced.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
I grew up when Labour was in power and I was able to appreciate the values and the difference the government could make. I joined the party as a teenager and its values run deep though my veins.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
I've never been an MP in government unfortunately and only know what it's like to be in opposition.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Since I was a teenager I have been standing up to antisemitism, racism and discrimination in all its forms.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
There are laws in this country to protect everyone and that includes the Jewish community.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
The sad truth is that millions of people with mental illness suffer stigma and prejudice, especially at work.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
There is no excuse for using someone's mental health as a stick with which to beat them.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
While a traditional TV advert might last for 30 seconds, a child can play an advergame for hours on end.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
As we confront the child obesity crisis, advergames that promote unhealthy foods to kids are a real cause for concern.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Many of us grew up with colourful characters such as Tony the Tiger, Coco the Monkey and Ronald McDonald. These figures were designed to market products - from sugary breakfast cereals to hamburgers - to children.
Quote by -Luciana Berger
Despite being commonplace, too many people with mental health problems still face stigma, prejudice and discrimination.
