Good MH News

HA1 — Sat, 28 Oct 2017 12:11:28 GMT

I thought I would start a thread on positive news associated with mental health - something that makes you feel happy, something heart warming. It could be something that you have read, heard or seen.

I'll kick it off with a news article about a person who had been battling mental health issues and just recently was named the best mental health nurse in the country!

To read the article Google:

"mental health patient now australia's best mental health nurse"

Take care

I have always been amazed at the quality of the writing in posts on the BB forum. Is it a special skill that we, who suffer from MH issues, possess? Do we use writing as an outlet? I think so.

I found an article about a poet that uses writing to cope with his mental health. His poem OCD has been viewed by 13 million people! I hope you find this story a Good News story.

Just Google the following: ocd neil hilborn poetry writing cope mental illness.

Take care
