Re: Mental Health Month - what is psychosocial support and recovery?
@RachSANECEO I really like the format, and would be very interested in seeing more videos of this type. I'd even be interested in watching more extensive interviews along these lines, even if I had to wait a bit to find some free time to properly watch it.
Regarding this particular video, I liked it; except that it didn't answer my main enduring question regarding psychosocial support, which is: Is it only for 'mentally ill' people? This is the issue that has constantly frustrated my efforts to try to understand what psychosocial support is, and where Australia currantly is in terms of it's adequacy.

Re: Mental Health Month - what is psychosocial support and recovery?
It was also (as you might be able to tell) relatively unplanned - literally just a first experiment with what might this be like so we are eager to learn and see what works.

Re: Mental Health Month - what is psychosocial support and recovery?
Is listening to someone, giving someone the time and space they need, even if maybe they don’t always align with what you would do, or they have a different opinion on a certain topic (not counting abuse or violence). It’s giving someone a space to be heard unconditionally. Going into conversations with that person with no bias, so for example, people have given me chances when I havent been the best person to be around, but I was given an opportunity to be heard and it helped me, and now I don’t feel like whenever I enter into conversations with these people that there is a black cloud over the conversation because of my past actions, I actually be listened to and respected, despite history. I don’t know if that makes sense.
