Facing Fears and Creating Hope: Make a Will for Free with MQ Mental Health Research
Every March and September, MQ Mental Health Research offers you the chance to make a will for free with no strings attached. While we’d appreciate a legacy gift left to the organization, we can help you create a will for free with no obligation whatsoever.
What are you most scared of? For many of us, public speaking is our biggest fear. According to research, the top fears people tend to have are fear of failure, fear of various animals, and fear of death. However, facing our fears can be difficult but doing so can also be truly liberating. Understanding and incorporating the acceptance of fear into our lives is a productive step forwards in functionality and positive life-development, research suggests.
Let us help you make a free will and help others by leaving a gift to MQ Mental Health Research. Making a will can help us confront the fear of dying and some of the fears of what will become of us and what we will leave behind. While anxiety may arise thinking about our own death, it’s important to note that part of that anxiety can be the stress that arises for our loved ones we leave behind. Grief is one of the most stressful experiences we as humans can go through. So, by making a will, we are not only alleviating stress for ourselves while we are alive but we’re also removing stress for our loved ones after we are gone.
Making a will needn’t be difficult. It can be hopeful, easy and, with our help, it can be free. If thinking about making a will is something you’ve considered but don’t know how to go about, MQ Mental Health Research can help you. We have partnered with Octopus Legacy, the award-winning UK’s number 1 online will-writing service, to offer an online will (for individuals or couples) at no cost to our supporters. Writing your will with Octopus Legacy is easy, you can do it online in as little as 30 minutes here.
Empower yourself by making a will for free with our help. Empower others by leaving a gift to MQ Mental Health Research in your will. You don’t have to leave a gift in your will to MQ, but if you do, you’ll be helping people in generations to come have a mentally healthier future. While making a will might not seem like something many people want to think about until perhaps poor health or having children changes our circumstances or perspectives, it can be a very empowering experience. Who we are and how we live on can be so much more than just financially – our ideas, our memories, our impact on the world around us can be through our kindness to others, our creations, what we’ve built through our life and our relationships.
If you, like many of us, think about what happens after you pass away, you might think about what you will leave behind. Perhaps you have considered leaving the gift of a mentally healthier future for others. The unexpected loss of a loved one increases the risk of psychiatric illnesses, research suggests. So there’s lots of reasons to consider leaving a gift in your will to MQ Mental Health Research.
Leave a legacy gift to MQ Mental Health Research and you leave money to help researchers advance positive change to mean future generations can live happier and healthier lives. MQ Mental Health Research is supporting the best and brightest scientists and researchers around the world to help us understand and find better ways to deal with mental illnesses such as depression, PTSD, and schizophrenia. But we can’t do this without your support. Funding for research into mental health conditions lags far behind physical health conditions, and without research, we won’t be able to find better treatments and preventions.
Leave a legacy gift to MQ Mental Health Research and you leave more than money. You’ll leave hope.
