Want to help but don’t know how? 

Do you fear becoming overwhelmed with others problems?

Do you think you have to be super informed or educated to be able to help others?

Originally I published this under the title ‘The Unguided Pastoral Missile’ but since then I have decided on a name change and I have added some really valuable information about Stress and how it affects one’s mental health.

Whenever I have shared this content it was like the room was lit up with light bulb moments going off.
