22.01.2022 new staff member update Everyone say hi to Karri!!! She started with headspace Pilbara in Karratha about a month ago as our Youth Wellbeing Worker. Karri is originally from New Zealand but has called Karratha home for a number of years. We are loving stories about her new puppy as well as hearing her cry out her favourite saying "what the dickens!" here is a little about Karri... fav topping on toast? thick avocado and s+p tea or coffee kinda person? Coffee which of the 7 tips do you like the most? get enough sleep, because if you get enough sleep it makes the other 6 easier to achieve. how would you describe your job to a 5 yr old?

19.01.2022 #Repost @tedsliverpool I bet you all that as you read this - you cant NOT see your nose. But it is so important to realise that, yes your nose is there, your brain filters it out.... Which means... What else does your brain filter out? Happiness because it is focused on sadness? Good times because it is focused on the past? Enjoying the presence because it is focused on the worry about your future? Loving and feeling loved because it is focused on your weight and body? Being mindful helps you to place yourself back in to the present, focus on what is ACTUALLY happening right there right now.

15.01.2022 Need a doctor when your local practice is closed? When it's urgent but not an emergency, if you live in the Midwest, Pilbara or Wheatbelt, you can access a doctor after hours, on weekends and on public holidays. Just ring Call A Doc on 1800 225 523 to book an appointment with an experienced, Australia-based doctor. If it can wait until your usual GP is available, that is usually the best option as they know you best. In an emergency call 000.

09.01.2022 #Repost @themindroom Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. So lets talk about it.... FACT: Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians aged between 15 and 44. FACT: In 2017, preliminary data showed a total of 3,128 deaths by suicide in Australia. FACT: Men are three times more likely to die by suicide than women and ABS data (2012) shows more people die from suicide than road deaths. FACT: Suicide prevention is about more than just mental ill-health. Recently the ABS released a report which identified a personal history of self-harm, family disruption, relationship problems and economic problems as key psychosocial risk factors that could contribute to suicide. . You dont need to be a clinician/GP/expert to reach out - just a good friend, a great listener and provide the space to talk. Listed below are some ideas to help you start the conversation: Ive noticed that you havent been yourself lately, is everything ok with you? . Im worried about you. Im wondering if we can talk about whats troubling you? . Youve seemed really (down/sad/angry/unhappy) lately. Im worried that you might be thinking of hurting yourself or suicide. Can we talk about this? . Trust your instincts and access suicide prevention resources to assist you in having the discussion. Some resources include: @Lifelineaustralia @BeyondBlue Suicide Call Back Service (search, Discussing Suicide: How to talk to somebody about suicide) . It is better to reach out than avoid the person for fear of getting the conversation wrong. Experts generally agree that asking someone whether they are thinking about suicide is unlikely to make the situation worse or put ideas in their head. . By acting as eyes and ears and reaching out to anyone whos going through a tough time we can show them theyre supported and encourage them to access help sooner.

09.01.2022 We couldn't add anymore colour into these photos if we tried!

It's a chance to remember and honour the lives lost to transphobic violence, and all every single trans trailblazer no longer with us. It's also a solemn and immediate reminder of WHY Trans Awareness Week is so important. Ending transphobia is a job for all of us being an ally isn't just a week-long activity, it's something we do every day.
