Preparing for Mental Illness
Hello everyone,
This is an opening for dealing with the "Beginning of Mental Illness". Mental health disorders occur at different times in life. So I am going to give you tips on mental health issues.
It all begins with:
-have a GP on board twice a week
-seek treatment with a psychiatrist (if needed)
-the reason why it's a good idea to see a doctor twice a week is because of medication, changes in the behaviours, when too seek treatment for going to hospital
-seeking treatment for psychology depending what funding you get divide up the sessions
-bare in mind that each person has their own needs
-ask about hospital programs you may need to admitted for these programs
-research on other charity, government and please like "The Black Dog Institute, Butterfly Foundation (eating disorders), SANE Australia and many others etc
-the Butterfly Foundation runs counselling and support groups for eating disorders
-do that comes to my next thing when you're ready do a support group
Remember these things take time. It's hard to trust and take the first step remember the first step is the hardest but the long term results are amazing.
