Many people find it hard to discuss their concerns with friends and family who have not experienced the same things they have. Mental health care is a large part of General Practice work. All GP’s have had significant training in the area of mental health, and how to best optimise an individual’s mental health. You can speak to your doctor about how you’re feeling and work with them to find the best care for you.
Beyond Blue provides information and support to help everyone in Australia achieve their best possible mental health, whatever their age and wherever they live.
Lifeline is a national charity providing all Australians experiencing a personal crisis with access to 24 hour crisis support and suicide prevention services.
