Ep 1: Mental Health - Awareness is Step Number One


Listen Later

In this very first episode, Liz and Lez discuss the many amazing resources available for free in Australia, that we can all access and learn from - no matter if we are feeling strong or fragile mentally. Believe it or not, we are all qualified to ask someone "R U OK?" 

The point is, we need to support each other. Life can be tough! So let's arm our ourselves with information so that we are in the best position to help ourselves or a loved one or even someone we don't know that well, when they need it most. Be curious and enjoy knowledge as power. 

Show Notes: 

  • Beyond Blue (lots of resources available, to support and be supported)
  • R U OK? (with the script of how to ask someone if they are ok, and what to say next)
  • Lifeline (free phone calls to talk with someone) 
  • Black Dog Institute (who do a lot of research into mental health in Australia)
  • Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW - Australian government department tracking stats on mental health)
  • Comunete Store 
  • Follow @lettuce_chat100 for all our updates. And if you enjoyed this episode, we would be thrilled if you would share it with a friend or even better give us a super quick review and fiiiiiiiiive stars! Many, many thanks.
