Description

This co-facilitated course explores different lived experience and professional views on medication.

We want to recognise that there is no single view on the role of medication in mental health. In the course we will engage in discussion and activities around different perspectives on medication. Hopefully through this course you’ll be able to find some new ideas that work for you, someone you support or someone you work with.

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.

Due to Covid, this course will run as a 45 minute online TASTER version of what is usually a 3 hour course.
