Peer Group Chat // Responding to Rejection // Thursday 9th May 2024, 7-8:30PM AEST

On Thursday 9th May 2024, we will be holding a Peer Group Chat on the topic of Responding to Rejection.

Rejection hurts! Whether it’s perceived rejection or rejection itself, this is something many of us are familiar with. The impacts of rejection can last from a few minutes to a few days, weeks, months or even years! Let’s come together to talk all things Rejection!

The event start times across Australia are below:

This is currently held in Australian Eastern Standard hours:

WA: 5pm

NT: 6:30pm

SA: 6:30pm

QLD: 7pm

NSW, ACT, VIC & TAS: 7pm

For anyone unfamiliar with Peer Group Chats, each focuses on a specific topic and is guided by Peer Workers with lived experience of mental health issues and recovery, &/or caring for someone with complex mental health. A counsellor is also present as a moderator to help ensure a safe environment for individuals and the group. It is a space for us as peers to share our stories and experiences, and connect with those who are going through something similar.

Peer Group Chats are hosted outside of the forums, using a platform called Chatwee. To join an Online Peer Group Chat, you will need to register for an account with Chatwee. On the night, follow this link and log in to your Chatwee account before the group starts.

Please see this FAQ for any questions you may have. For any issues on the night, please message the moderator of the group on the Chat platform. If you'd like to receive a reminder closer to the event, please support this post & we'll keep you updated.

@tyme Good reading in the links you provided.

I enjoyed reading about reframing rejection. Amazing how often it is NOT about me.

This PGC came at a good time.

Hey @Glisten , Glad the resources were helpful. I found those tips helpful too.

I had the same takeaway as you that sometimes, people are having their own issues and it's not because they don't like us and want to reject us.. it's just that they need to sort themselves out.
