Topic Tuesday // When caring for parents // Tues 24 Sep, 7pm AEST
One in five adults live with mental illness, as such it is a very genuine reality that many of the children of those living with mental health challenges have had to assume the “parenting role” in the dynamic.
Caring for parents can at times be a challenging and complex experience, but on the flip there’s a lot of growth and insight that comes from supporting a parent with mental health challenges. Join us for this event as we discuss some different strategies and support options for those affected by parents living with mental illness.

I'm new here - what is Topic Tuesday?
Topic Tuesday runs from 7pm - 9pm AEST monthly. Each month we focus on a different topic, with the session facilitated by a Community Manager or Moderator. Sometimes Topic Tuesday will feature a special guest, who is an expert in the topic.
The first post of the thread (this one) will give you an idea of what the topic is and what will be covered.
How do I get involved?
Topic Tuesday takes place right here! It's text based, so no software is needed. During the session, to keep up with the latest posts hit the 'refresh' button on your browser for the latest posts (it doesn't automatically update). Keep an eye for page numbers at the top & bottom of the page, and jump to the highest page number for the most recent post.
Throughout the session, the facilitator will put questions out for you to answer, usually asking for your own experience on the topic. To contribute to the session, just hit the 'reply' button and share your thoughts. No answers are right or wrong and everyone is welcome to get involved.
If you have any questions about how to use the Forums, check out our Guides.
