Our Crisis Counselors had a fantastic time participating in Lone Star College-Kingwood's Mental Health Fair where they had opportunity to engage students and raise awareness of the importance of taking care of our mental and emotional health, as well as provide insights into the Crisis Counseling Program, which offers crisis counseling services to individuals impacted by the recent May flooding events across our region. If you would like more information on the Crisis Counseling Program or would like us to come to your next event, please reach out to us at - [email protected].

Just finished my MHFA Refresher course Aurecon their culture & the way they look after their people is second to none. I am beyond grateful for the chance to learn how to approach & facilitate help for anyone suffering with any Mental health. ?? Thankyou Cass Jones and Geoff Alexander for an amazing session!! Here are some helplines if you need it: . Kids help line 1800 55 1800 Lifeline 13 11 14 or text 0477 13 11 14 Mens Line 1300 789 978 Brother to Brother 1800 435 799 line for Aboriginal Men. Beyond Blue 1300 224 636 BlueKnot helpline 1300 657 380 trauma Eating disorders 1300 195 626 Grieving line 1300 845 745 Alcohol & drug line 1800 198 024 . Best things we learn on what to do as a Mental Health First Aider is to follow this acronym A.L.G.E.E. which stands for: . A – Approach, assess for risk of suicide/ harm. Find the right time/ place to start the convo with privacy & confidentiality. If the person does not want to talk, encourage them to talk to someone they trust. . L – Listen non-judgmentally. Many people just want to be heard first, so let the person share without interrupting them. Try to have empathy, can start by saying “I noticed that …” Try to be accepting, even if you don’t agree with what they are saying. . G – Give reassurance & support information. After someone has shared their experiences & emotions with you, be ready to provide hope & useful facts. . E – Encourage appropriate professional help. The earlier someone gets help, the better their chances of recovery. Tell them what's available or ask to come with them. . E – Encourage self-help & other support strategies. This includes helping them identify their support network, programs within the community, and creating a personalized self-care plan. . I have helped numerous people some friends, some colleagues and others are strangers from difficult situation from stress, anxiety, depression & near harming. I have lost friends & also friend's of friends to suicide. Today one of the facilitators told a story how she helped a senior manager from killing himself following the above ?? this is what 30 seconds of Courage could do - it can SAVE A LIFE. . . #MFHA #MentalHealth #FirstAider #YouMatter #GetHelp #ReachOut #YouAreNotAlone #ThereIsHelp #SoMuchHelp #itsOkayToNotBeOkay
