World Mental Health Day - 10 October 2019

I’ve just made a mental health promise as part of World Mental Health Day here

World Mental Health Day is on 10 October 2019. This day is for global mental health education, awareness and advocacy.

The Mental Health Australia theme for 2019 is “Do You See What I See?” and challenges perceptions about mental illness in Australia. It encourages everyone to look at mental health in a more positive light in an effort to reduce stigma and make way for more people to seek the help and support they need.

At home, at work, with family and friends, or in the wider community, we can all do something to help reduce stigma around mental illness and make way for more people to seek the help and support.

Visit https://1010.org.au and make a promise by selecting one of the beautiful graphics each depicting an individual message and upload it to the Promise Wall. Or you can even write your own promise and upload an image about something connected to your promise.

Once you make a promise you will receive a confirmation email with your image and some social sharing links.

My Promise is below and will become my profile picture on facebook during the week commencing the 10th October 2019.

Please join me by selecting or upload a promise. Take a look at all the promises on the promise wall.
