This Christmas remember to be kind, compassionate and understanding. Many people have experienced trauma, grieve for missing loved ones, are unable to access support systems, have no family, are alone on the holidays, feel isolated and struggle financially. At this time of year, domestic and family violence, panic attacks, self harm and suicidal thoughts, sadness and anger, drug and alcohol abuse, anxiety and depression increase. YOU CAN HELP! Check in and keep connected, know open support services and do not shame negative thoughts.This Christmas remember to be kind, compassionate and understanding.

I feel that many followers will not be surprised by the content of the following article "Can't afford a psychologist? Here's where it all went wrong" www.abc.net.au/news/2020-12-08/covid-mental-health-system-medicare-inequality/12512378?nw=0
We look forward to rolling out our National Training Strategy next year as a step towards upskilling clinicians to be able and willing to treat people with BPD.
