Olivia Howat @madamanxiety your story had me in tears because I know what it feels like to live longer than you had planned and not know what to do now. Your voice is SO important. Keep sharing. #letsgetfunctional

Beautiful comparison on the difference between carer and consumer perspectives on #recovery from a panel member/ #peerworker
#Letsgetfunctional
Mental ill-health has always been around, the difference is now we have more and louder voices coming together to advocate for education, better services, breaking down stigma and much more. @tonytobe speaking on the #Letsgetfunctional panel
“There are people that are throwing down stigma. If I had cancer and I was loosing my hair you would probably give me your coat.” Shannon McCleery-Hooper talks early intervention and mental illness. @orygen_aus #Letsgetfunctional
Fabulous youth & career panel digging into issues of power & devaluation, potential value of a ‘peer support’ degree, positive spiritual aspects of psychosis #letsgetfunctional
Calls for professionalism of peer workforce and on paper credentials. In answer to a panel members question: Cert IV Peer Work covers trauma informed care, sharing story safely, ASIST, legislation, intentional peer support and much more! #Letsgetfunctional
Response to being told "You're just a peerworker" - "Hey I'm qualified through my lived experience" #Letsgetfunctional
Peerworker on the panel calls for more diversity in peer workforce - variations on lived experience and layers of privilege. I think specialisation within peer work would be amazing! #Letsgetfunctional #peerwork #youthmh
“We call it the wrap around model. We throw everything at them and see what sticks.” Shannon McCleery-Hooper discusses holistic care for inclusive mental health services @orygen_aus #letsgetfunctional
Functional recovery is broad and nonlinear. It can be subjective “It’s not just about getting a person from point A to point B.” #Letsgetfunctional
Functional recovery is holistic, self-directed and tailored to the individual. It means being able to drive your own recovery and functioning without constraints of stigma, including internalised stigma. Great insights from today’s panel at #Letsgetfunctional
How exciting to see a panel of 7 people with lived experience! #Letsgetfunctional
For everyone at #Letsgetfunctional and #LEWdialogue2019 I would like to promote Peer Workers Network created for #peerworkers by peerworkers. Join our Facebook group for some great discussion! https://t.co/PmraWeM3qP
@magenta_simmons & @tonytobe add additional perspectives: importance of choice over pay/hours, risk of/potential for exploitation if not salaried/paid employment, equity & parity #letsgetfunctional 2
