Online Course on mental health, PTSD

Online Course on mental health, PTSD

I have just found started a course online from Mindspot (mindspot.org.au) dealing with depression. PTSD, mental illness etc and coping with them. It is run by therapists and they have changed it as they get feedback from past participants.

It is an 8 week course with 5 modules. You do an online assessment and apply, then when they have a course starting they tell you how to enrol. It is totally free and you can ask for regular calls or messages from your therapist if you want to. Have just received the first lesson and will post some info that I find interesting/useful. Will be able to tell all as I get through if I think it is helpful and worthwhile.

Re: Online Course on mental health, PTSD

Oh @Brownbear Its not organised. Sorry.

I read a psych nurses manual when I was a teen trying to come to terms with my parents diagnosis. (1979)

When finally had time and I was late to the internet I started by looking thoroughly at Stanford uni lecturer Robert Sapolsky youtubes.

Looking at random articles etc. Understanding trauma.

There are heaps of good links if you use search bar on this site and Mad in America etc.

Did online course

Understanding Psychosis in uk.

I check a few things from psychiatric point of view but more interested in general human behaviour, as the bigpharma aspect and complex stats re meds make it unhelpful... for me ... a knotty convoluted black hole.

I voolunteer at a zoo and keep looking and thinking about us as mammals and primates etc...as well as socially complex beings.

Warm regards

Apple

A couse I did since I began posting on Sane forum at MIndspot has taken up the PTSD aspect, since I did it. Internet always changing ... etc ...
