Peer Group Chat // Work, Study, and Mental Health // Thursday 3rd November 2022, 7-8:30PM AEDT

Hi everyone!
 
 
 

Our Peer Group Chat on Thursday 3rd November 2022 will be on the topic of Work, Study, and Mental Health.


Work &/or study can take up a large part of our lives and there can be unique challenges with this. How we prioritise our mental health in these spaces is important. Join this group where we will share our thoughts, experiences, and strategies with each other.

Within this upcoming Peer Group Chat, you can expect us to cover: 

  • Our experiences and what we’d each like to get out of the group 
  • Ways we cope, whether its ourselves in the work or study situation, or supporting a loved one working or studying 
  • Services, systems and processes that exist to support our needs at work or educational institutions

For anyone unfamiliar with Peer Group Chats, each focuses on a specific topic and is guided by Peer Workers with lived experience of mental health issues and recovery, &/or caring for someone with complex mental health. A counsellor is also present to assist in ensuring a safe environment for individuals and the group. It is a space for us as peers to share our stories and experiences, and connect with those who are going through something similar. 

 

The event start times across Australia are below:
