Taking time to manage, care for, and support your mental health is important. We hope that this week has helped bring to light resources and strategies you can use to support yourself and your teammates through times of stress, chaos, and burnout. Thank you for taking time to review these resources, contribute to our Mental Health Tool Stack, and for being open to having conversations about mental health here at GitLab.
