Community Broadcasting Suicide Prevention Project - April 2022

What's in this month's segments?

Following on from the recent floods, we catch up with Dr Grant Blashki from Beyond Blue this month to find out how disasters can impact on our mental health and well-being, and when it’s important to get some help and support.

The team at ReachOut provides some advice for young people about steps they can take to feel physically and emotionally safe following a disaster.

And Tess Reddel from Lifeline Australia highlights some of the things we can do to help us cope following the recent floods and to provide our children with a sense of safety and stability.  

We also catch up with PANDA CEO Julie Borninkhof to find out about the experiences of mental illness among men during their journey to becoming a dad, and the support they can access.

And we profile the SANE Forums, which provide a genuine online peer-to-peer support service for people affected by complex mental illness across Australia.
