Your Mental Health and You

 Your Mental Health and You. 

 

 Did you know 1 in 5 Australians suffer from a mental illness?

And many more of us suffer from mental exhaustion and depression. Mental well-being is key to a happy life, and that's why we at the Azure Beach library are hosting ‘Your Mental Health and You', a human library book event that aims to bring to the community together on a still misunderstood part of our society.

4 human “library books” will be speaking at this event, talking about how mental illness has affected their lives and of those around them. Come listen to their stories, and together we can tear down the walls of stigma around a very serious issue, and learn to love and understand each other, for as we say here at Azure Beach... It's okay to not be okay!

What is a human library book event you ask?

A Human Library is where people become the books. Come down to listen to these "books" and their stories about mental health, and what kind of struggles they went through. You can find more information here at humanlibrary.org
