Mental Health
You are not alone
This clip shows young people describing the range of support available for those with a mental illness, including help provided by health professionals, peers and teachers. They also reflect on the things that can make people with a mental illness feel more positive and hopeful, including the benefits of knowing they are not alone, that others share similar experiences and that recovery is possible. This clip is one of a series in which young Indigenous and non-Indigenous people speak about their experience of mental health issues and mental illness.
These Speaking from Experience clips feature eight young people who share their experiences of dealing with mental health issues. It was produced in partnership with Orygen Youth Health , SANE Australia and Aboriginal Medical Service of Western Sydney .
