Description
This course is great if you:• Have got some thoughts about medication and mental health, but are open to hearing some different ones
• Feel confused about the choice to take medication
• Want to learn about medication and mental health
This course gives you the chance to hear different lived experience and professional views on medication. The conversation will be had in a way that is open and respectful, but also engaging and interactive!
We want to recognise that there is no single view on the role of medication in mental health. Hopefully by hearing some different perspectives, you’ll be able to find some ideas that work for you.
We’re going to explore the role of medication in mental health. We probably won’t look specifically at individual medications, but we will share in different ideas about how and why medication is and isn’t used by individuals.
