It was so rewarding to see that the clients you have looked after, become themselves again, all healthy and ready for discharge.

Overall, the biggest gain from this placement was being able to build up my communication skills. Having effective communication is very important because at the end of the day, patients/consumers just want someone to sit down and talk to them.

@MHR5000818 Had the chance to experience mental health in a community based setting and I found it interesting because it was very different compared to being on the ward. I liked how we could visit clients at their home because there was more one-to-one interaction.

@MHR5000818 It's really nice to hear nurses saying how much they appreciate us students because we are actually more helpful than we thought

@MHR5000818 Does anyone else feel happy when consumers remember your name? Because I do 😄😄😄

It was a busy day today, had seven patients with ECT and required half hourly obs 😂 but the day went by quick so I was happy 😄

Had a challenging day today, having consumers being verbally aggressive. How was everybody's day today? @MHR5000818

I think interacting with a NESB consumer who speaks your language is really important to their recovery journey because you may be the only one who can understand their thoughts and feelings. So if you find a consumer who speaks your language, don't be shy to talk to them!

Help each other out and stick up for your mates! This article talks about how being a 'schoolyard hero' can have the power to stop bullying

I found that men can also suffer from postnatal depression. Because they are portrayed as masculine by the society, they tend to not express themselves. Men are also human. They shouldn't be ashamed of expressing their emotions.

@sana5000818 @MHR5000818 I was reading about it yesterday and it really angers me how bullying or cyberbullying is still so prevalent in Australia.

[Jessica @Jessica5000818]

1 in 4 Australian students are being bullied every few weeks or more. Bullying can lead to anxiety, depression and suicide. Around 750 Australian teens (13 to 17 years) commit suicide every year because of cyberbullying. No one deserves to be bullied. @MHR5000818

I was looking at some quotes about depression and I thought this might help us better understand people suffering from depression https://t.co/1uPCAfqn5p
This was one of my favourite quotes: "Sometimes even to live is an act of courage." - Seneca.
Tell me your favourite one!

It is insane how pop culture has such a big influence on kids as young as 12
