A new support document is now available from the Mental Health Network E-Library, entitled 'Breaking Free: A Guide For Your Mental Health Wellbeing'.
Written by Mental Health First Aider, Craig Rodgers, it is a compendium of support and information aimed at providing advice and guidance to those who are struggling with their mental Health and provides support from various sources that Craig himself has either used or sourced from organisations dedicated to helping people to find their way in coping strategies in order to improve and sustain their mental health condition.
Craig says in the introduction to his document:
‘Breaking Free’ is inspired by my own struggles and
growth. I spent a large portion of my adult life struggling
with mental health in silence, and it wasn’t until the last
5-6 years that I finally ‘broke free’ and prioritised getting
better.
I still find myself struggling sometimes, but
knowing what I know now, I can find my way back to
that feeling of freedom.
I managed a lot of my personal growth by myself and as
time went on, wanted to expand my knowledge on
myself and mental health. I’m now qualified in Mental
Health First Aid; I’ve been to private therapy and do a lot
of my own research through reading.
This guide is a baseline for what I’ve learnt about
common mental health problems and includes
information you can use to learn about them, helpful
tips, and resources for professional help regarding each one'
