🧠 Mental Health Matters - Let's Talk, Listen, & Support 💙

Did you know?
🟢 Around 1 in 5 Aussies aged 16 to 85 have experienced a mental health condition at some point in their life
🟢 With around 1 in 7 children aged 4 to 17 experiencing a mental health condition
🟢 The most common mental health conditions are depression, anxiety, and substance abuse

Yet many people delay seeking help due to stress, stigma, or not knowing where to start.

This Mental Health Month, we are encouraging everyone to check in with themselves, and reach out early. Talk with a trusted friend, family, your GP, or a mental health service.

You are never alone, and it is ok to ask for help.

If you, or someone you know, needs support, visit Black Dog Institute
