Who could you talk to?

Support from others is very important for increasing your resilience. Therefore, it is important that you create and maintain good relationships with family members, people of your own age and other people that are important to you and who you share a good bond with. These are the same people that may help you when you need support.

Some young people have more supportive people around them than other, but everyone should be able to go to someone.
