How mental health problems can affect your finances

These pages contains information on how mental health problems can affect your finances.

Many common mental health problems are likely to make it more difficult to manage your money because of the nature of the symptoms you are likely to experience.

Some mental health problems can result in people making rash or unwise decisions about their finances, such as spending money they cannot afford, while others make it particularly difficult to have the energy to keep track of money. If you are very ill, it can be necessary for someone else to take control of your money for a time. 

The following links give more information the relationship between some mental health problems and money.
