Hello everyone. Thank you for having me.
I just wanted to introduce myself. I actually work within mental health, but also have a lived experience of ongoing mental illness. I've been a support person to friends with mental illness and did a lot of voluntary work alongside my 5yrs of studying.
I've joined these forums partly to explore some mental health stuff that's going on for me at present and also to provide support for others going through tough times ☺️

Hi Tillysmum,
Welcome to Beyond Blue!
I hope you find both the help and support that is offered, and that be given on the wonderfully supportive site.
Hope you are enjoying your weekend.
Look forward to hearing more from you. Perhaps you could share a little more of your own story at some time? Only if you want to of course.
Anyway, take care. xo
