SELWYN TIMES Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi Wednesday May 8 2019 15 Your Local Views Caring for mental health Megan Nelis is recovering from anorexia, depression and anxiety. The Lincoln resident writes about taking action on World Mental Health Day. The conversations are beginning to be had and awareness is increasing – but mental health and illness is still stigmatised in society. Today is World Mental Health Day, a time to really place the spotlight on mental well-being and take a look at our health and that of others. My name is Meg, I am 22-years- old and have been in recovery from anorexia nervosa, major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders for more than seven years. When I was diagnosed, there was little talk about mental illness, a taboo topic with stereotype. I thought there was something wrong with me, I was alone and there was no hope for me. I don’t wish for anyone to have to experience and feel what I felt back then. I am thankful to be in a place in my recovery where I am now, advocating for mental WELL-BEING: Today is World Mental Health Day and Megan Nelis is urging people to check up on their loved ones. health and awareness. Rawing Meg was a platform created to share my past experiences in my recovery, as well as sharing stories of hope from others. Mental health is something we all have. What is important is that we do not feel ashamed or embarrassed for acknowledging the difficulties we face or for wanting to seek advice or help. You are no less of a person, not weak, nor alone in your struggles. Let today be a timely reminder to ask yourself and those around you: •How are you really feeling? •Do you have time each day dedicated to yourself? •Is your mood, anxiety, exercise or food taking up more time than it should? •Is there something you need to talk about with someone? Begin those chats with your children, friends, and colleagues and if you see someone struggling tell them or tell someone who can help. •For more information about Rawing Meg visit www.rawingmeg.wixsite. com/hearmeraw BACKYARD CRITTERS All about aphids Mike Bowie is an ecologist who specialises in entomology (insects and other invertebrates). Each week he introduces a new species found in his backyard at Lincoln. His column aims to raise public awareness of biodiversity, the variety of living things around us. Check out the full list of invertebrates found at http://naturewatch.org.nz/projects/backyardbiodiversity-bugs-in-lincoln APHIDS ARE a very common sight on roses, particularly in the late spring. Although there are at least four species that can feed on roses, the most common species by far is the rose aphid (Macrosiphon rosae). This species is 2-4mm long, green with a red tinge and has no distinctive markings. Aphids can be seen from spring through to winter and during that time they can produce many generations. In optimal conditions, a generation can take five to 10 days. Most aphids are born pregnant and can therefore build up large populations quickly. Aphid mouthparts pierce and suck fluid from roses and in large populations can reduce plant health. Aphids also excrete honeydew which drips onto vegetation below, creating a sticky mess that can attract exotic wasps and other insects that feed on the sugary residue. Sooty mould can also attack the honeydew, turning it black over time. Predators include birds such as silvereye and goldfinch, and insects such as ladybirds, hoverfly larvae and lacewings. WWW.
