‘Glimpses‘ is a living manuscript containing invaluable insight into the lives of people with a mental illness or experience as their carer.
Contributors tell about the lead up to diagnosis, dealing with MH Services, medication issues, identifying triggers, working towards recovery and coping strategies. Their desire is to increase understanding and reduce stigma surrounding mental illness is the motivating factor behind sharing such personal and sometimes painful stories.
Glimpses is distributed quarterly, for free, by email to a variety of consumer and carer groups, educational facilities, clinicians, individuals and is currently utilised by 4 Universities for course content.
You are invited to contact me for future copies of Glimpses for personal use or as a resource in promoting Mental Health Week. I have also included my contact details for people who are interested in submitting their experiences for inclusion in future editions.
