Re: Good Morning!
Morning @TAB @MDT @BPDSurvivor @Clawde @oceangirl have a great day.
I was looking online and saw a lived experience job in regards to mental health and thought of starting that. I know it's a long shot but has anyone heard of it?

Re: Good Morning!
Hi @Former-Member ,
Good morning!
I guess a 'lived experience' job may be a peer work position? Or it could be to support the development of treatments etc? What do you think? I'm not sure what the job description entails in the position you saw.
Sounds interesting though.

Re: Good Morning!
Hi @BPDSurvivor your're right! Peer support worker is the start I'm aiming for - hoping a DES provider might be able to set me up with work experience and go from there. Change of plans it seems lol hoping it's as rewarding as it sounds.
how're you this morning anyway?

Re: Good Morning!
I'm not 100% about what a 'peer worker' does @Former-Member sometimes counsellor positions ask for 'lived experience' used to read in papers about govt D&A counsellors going off rails. They were reverting to old habits. Just saying as an example. so their position could have asked for 'lived experience' guess they are chasing empathy. .
Perhaps ask @MDT as well as @Former-Member I recall @MDT saying he had done some research on working in MH area .
Have a good day anyway
