Hi everyone,
Welcome to the Multicultural Experiences section, a
sub-forum within the wider beyondblue forum community.
beyondblue acknowledges and respects the diversity of
communities across Australia, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
people as the First Australians. beyondblue also recognises the
complexities of identity and that people may identify with more than one
community.
Depression, anxiety and suicide can affect any of us at any
time – regardless of our culture or background. We also know that a range of
factors can make it harder for people in some communities to seek and access
support.
This section is for members born overseas, are the children
of parents born overseas, have a language other than English as your primary
language, or come from a family with mixed cultural heritage.
Please be aware that posts in this forum may contain
discussions of suicide, self-harm and/or traumatic life events. As per
our community rules, please be mindful when posting about the level of detail
you share on these topics as it can be upsetting for other members.
We look forward to hearing your stories.
