When you live with mental health struggles, things like spending time with loved ones, a home-cooked meal or help paying bills tend to be more valuable than gifts such as new clothes, electronics or jewelry. And since these types of practical gifts can’t really be bought in stores and wrapped, we created coupons for kind gestures that can make life easier for a friend struggling with their mental health.
Print the list or copy and paste the coupons you like to send to your friend to “redeem” when they need some love.
