Online Peer Group Chat // Working and studying with complex mental health issues // Thurs 20 MAY 7-8:30PM AEST

Hey everyone!
Our next Online Peer Group Chat will be held on Thursday 20th May, 7PM-8:30PM AEST and starting at these times in other time zones:

We will be talking about working and studying with complex mental health issues. Work and study can take up a large part of our lives and there can be unique challenges associated with this; it's important to consider how we navigate our mental health in these spaces. In this group we will share our thoughts, experiences, and strategies with each other.

Tagging a few people who might be interested @BlueBay @Judi9877 @MDT @BPDSurvivor. Please also tag anyone else who you think might be interested, and remember we welcome you to ask a question in advance to be discussed in the group on the night

Our peer workers will be facilitating the group and it's open to everyone who wants to drop by and share in the conversation! If you're interested, head here for more details and to join on the night. If you can't make it, no worries, the transcripts will be posted on the website afterwards for you to read in your own time 😊

We hope to see you there

Hi @Eve7 and @soppykat

Firstly head over to this page (which can be found using the dropdown menus at the top of the SANE website: Peer Support -> Peer Group Chat).

From there, scroll down until you see the button to open the peer group chat. (If you can't find it the page has instructions instructions for joining too).

If you'd like to simply read through the chat, you can enter as a guest. If you'd like to participate, you'll have to sign up with your email address. Many folks simply use their forum name, but you can choose any username that keeps your anonymity.

If you do miss out, all of the group chat transcripts are posted online afterwards!

If you have any more queries you can check out the FAQ page

Hey @soppykat, that's ok. It can be tricky sometimes! You can read the transcript back here if you'd like, and I'll tag the lovely @Judi9877 who I believe may have been going to get a thread started to keep the conversation going to let you know when that happens. I hope that helps! 😊
