Description
What’s behind the decision to take meds?In this course, we are going to explore different lived and professional experience around the role of medication in mental health. We won’t look at specific medications, but we will share in different ideas about how and why medication is and isn’t used by individuals. We’ll explore how complex it really is and hopefully by hearing some different perspectives, you’ll be able to find some ideas that work for you, someone you support or someone you are working with.
This course is great if you are:
keen to understand more experiences around medication and mental health
curious about the role of medication in mental health
Feel confused about the choice to take medication
curious about how we have better conversations about medication
