Course details

More about this course
  • Around one in three people have a long-term physical illness, and of these people, around one in three also struggle with mental health problems like depression and anxiety.
  • Symptoms such as pain, fatigue, disability, and uncertainty around treatment, can all contribute to mental health problems, which in turn can worsen physical symptoms.
  • On this course, you'll learn how mental and physical health interact. You'll look in-depth at the relationship between physical and mental illness, and improve your ability to recognise symptoms and find help.
