We know if we gather together a group of people with different skills & experiences then it makes new better ways fwd possible. What's important is doing this in a way that 'holds space' for listening to all views, where there's equality of participation, & a spirit of curiosity.
Proud to see Prof. @JoRobinson_Aus, our Head of Suicide Research, receiving her AM for “significant service to community health through suicide prevention awareness and support” at Government House. Congrats on this well-deserved recognition, Jo!

Great thread @ProfLAppleby and we @MindCharity will tackle this head on in coming months, we can’t lose the progress made, but, we have to understand the nuance required in 2024! 👇🏼
We should be concerned by the new stigma, the public perception that mental health is an excuse, a card people play. But we should also ask whether our previous anti-stigma messaging has contributed, however inadvertently, and how that can change. Short 🧵
So yes, we all have mental health, helping or holding us back in the classroom, workplace, relationships. It may add to adversity but not set us apart. It shouldn’t bring entitlement but it should bring out society’s best values. Empathy, inclusion, no-one left behind. /Ends
And should we be more sensitive to all the people who, even without mental ill-health, are struggling just now. Of course their resentment is being exploited. The polarisation that plagues so much public discourse pitting one type of disadvantage against another.
Should we say more about successful treatment? Stigma attaches itself to untreatable illness, public impatience to going untreated. But campaigns are often service user-led & SUs may have had poor experience of treatment. Understandable omission then, but self-defeating?
Could we do better in explaining the causes of mental ill-health? Drawing a line from childhood deprivation & abuse, where public sympathy is strong, to their adult consequences - including being on benefits - where it can appear non-existent.
By coincidence reports of rising poverty and rising mental ill-health both appeared yesterday. But the cause for the latter was said to be “over-medicalisation”.
