Despite decades of government investment, significant research endeavour, and a growing commitment to mental health training and response activities in schools and workplaces, rates of mental health in Australia are rising. The scale of this issue is staggering: a recent report shows that 494,000 Australians with moderate to severe mental health problems are not receiving the support they desperately need. Long wait times and a shortage of mental health professionals are leaving vulnerable Australians without access to timely and appropriate care, particularly those in rural and remote areas. When people finally get care, it doesn't always help. We know the current system is broken. We know what we need – a robust mental health system that is well-staffed, adequately funded and integrated across the country that will lay the foundations for a mentally healthier future. But how do we get there? How do we plan for a better future? And what is the role of Health Professionals? Listen to our Mental Health Month edition of Expert Insights were Black Dog Institute's Dr Peter Baldwin, Senior Research Fellow and Policy Research Manager, will share findings from BDI's recent mental health poll and discuss the key issues facing the health sector.

If you live in Australia and require any support, please call the Butterfly Foundation on 1800 334 673. Today's episode focuses on an important health topic that is rarely discussed, yet it's one that affects a number of women, and that's eating disorders in midlife and beyond. I'm sharing a conversation that I had with Associate Professor Gemma Sharp. Gemma leads a body image and eating disorders research program at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia. In her clinical work, she is a Senior Clinical Psychologist and Nationally Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinician in Australia. She is very proud to have led the world's first comprehensive online resource addressing the intersection between eating disorders. This episode is absolutely fascinating; tune in as we talk about: How the hormonal changes in midlife impact your appetite and body composition. How it is for any age and time to start discussions around reproductive functioning, even as early as puberty. Breaking down what is an eating disorder and how it can look different for different women. How types of eating disorders seem to differ at different stages of life and for different genders. It's never too early to seek support, and how it can be hard to notice signs and symptoms. The different aspects of eating disorders and how they present themselves, for example, finding it difficult to engage in social eating, excessive time in the gym or body dissatisfaction. Talking to someone about an eating disorder. Changing body compositions in midlife and how we are not meant to stay the same weight our entire lives. Different cultures and attitudes towards eating disorders. As you'll hear throughout the interview, Gemma's drive and passion is leading to many world firsts that will benefit women for years to come. If you think it could benefit another woman, I would love for you to share this episode.

For most of our episodes I research a topic and discuss it with Susie. We covered anxiety some time ago in that format, and it's continued to be one of our most popular downloads. So, when I was given the opportunity to interview a specialist in the area, I jumped at the chance. In this interview, Renee Mill talks about the model she uses to treat patients, called the Ebb Flow model. #We also covered:How important it is to avoid labelling ourselves and how just talking about anxiety, and understanding why you have it, won't necessarily fix it.How important it is to treat symptoms of anxiety as soon as possible, to unwire the track of thinking before it becomes entrenched. How our belief about an event will be one of the key reasons why we react the way we do.How to prepare our kids for their transition to a new school, and why it's so important to calm our own nerves about it and tune into the individual child and what they might need.How 'collaborative parenting', being a calm container, can really help our teens.How important it is to be clear about our values and beliefs with our teens.How important it is to be authentic with our kids.How choose to do things that aren't really important to us, but are things others are doing, set us up for failure.How articulating feelings can be very challenging for teens, and having a 'feelings' vocabulary can really support them.I loved Renee's point about having a list of emotions, and found this worksheet that we parents can use to try and identify our feelings, and those of our teens. https://www.therapistaid.com/worksheets/list-of-emotionsYou can find our previous discussion about anxiety here:https://www.teenagersuntangled.com/parenting-tips-14-how-to-help-your-teen-with-anxiety-and-how-to-set-rules-that-your-teens-will-follow/If you would like to read more about Renee Mill, and the services she offers, here's the link: https://anxietysolutionscbt.com/about/renee-mill/Thanks for listening.

How to Make the Most of good stress and Manage the Bad by Marissa Downes Stress, or more accurately distress, occurs when the demands on a person exceed their abilities, skills, or coping strategies. “Stress is a response to a threat in any situation and is the body's way of protecting you,” says Laura Kampel, a Senior Clinical Psychologist at the Black Dog Institute. It's essential to recognise that stress is ‘designed' to be a short-term experience and can even be helpful in many situations (more on healthy stress or eustress later). However, too much stress too often, or chronic stress, can take a heavy toll on our health, wellbeing, performance and our relationships. Stress levels in Australia are rising. A survey conducted by the Australian Psychological Society found the wellbeing of Australians has been declining in recent years, with respondents reporting lower levels of wellbeing and higher levels of stress, depression and anxiety. The survey on Stress and Wellbeing in Australia found: Younger adults between 18 to 25 consistently reported lower levels of wellbeingPersonal finance, health, and family issues are the top stressors across all age groups.Pressure to maintain a healthy lifestyle was the fourth most common cause of stress.Most Australians surveyed felt that stress impacted their physical health (72%) and mental health (64%), but very few reported seeking professional help.More than one in 10 Australians (12%) reported that keeping up with social media networks contributed to their overall stress levels.According to research from Headspace and the National Union of Students, 83.2% of Australian universities and their students reported that stress negatively affected their health and wellbeing. There's more to stress because it is more than distress. Today the word stress is synonymous with distress. There is a common belief that: Stress is equal to distress and then perceived as a Health Risk. With this prevailing belief, and ‘stress' has become the equivalent of ‘distress', many people have become stressed about stress! Obviously, as a stress management strategy, this is not ideal!! While it is true that feeling stressed does push people into uneasy states, stress is more than distress, and the idea that “stress is bad” is problematic, if not harmful, to our health. What is the purpose of stress? The body's Stress Response evolved to help us survive and to learn. The cascade of hormones released during the Stress Response primes the body for action, heightens your senses and improves your performance. Stress impacts our minds and bodies. Any change that causes physical, emotional, or psychological strain engages the body's Stress Response System – alerting us that the ‘stressor' requires attention and action, for example: Exercise is a physical stressor that prompts us to rest, nourish and recover.Dangerous situations, such as a hot surface, warn us to protect ourselves by moving away from or leaving the position.When perceived as a threat, uncertainty may motivate us to seek certainty within or adjust our perception of uncertainty. Stress can also contribute to understanding and memory by triggering the hormone Cortisol, an influential modulator of mechanisms involved in learning. Mild stress also causes the neurotransmitter acetylcholine to be released by nerve cells in the brain, and this is the same process when people concentrate on learning something new. Healthy stress or eustress Yes, stress can be healthy! In fact, we need some stress levels to grow, learn, and adapt. A lack of ‘healthy stress' often leaves us feeling lost, directionless, and unhappy. Healthy stress is sometimes called ‘eustress', and it refers to stress that leads to positive outcomes and is often termed the opposite of ‘distress'. It contributes to feelings of confidence, adequacy and self-efficacy stimulated by the challenge and the accomplishment of the challenge experienced.

She holds a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Trinity College Dublin & works to support parents as well as children as she understands the pressures we face today without judgement.

Uncertainty is a fundamental driver of anxiety. We crave certainty, and yet, would you actually want to be certain about what's going to happen in every single aspect of your life? I wouldn't despite how anxiety provoking and awful living with uncertainty can be. In today's episode, Dr. Toni Lindsay, author of The Certainty Myth, reminds us that life isn't always easy, and it was never meant to be, but we can adjust; we can cope.

Having a chronic physical health condition such as osteoarthritis can have a negative effect on mental health which commonly manifests as depression or anxiety. Epidemiological research has shown that most adults with common mental health conditions do not access psychologically-based treatments. This is due to many reasons including costs, stigma, long waiting lists and availability outside of major cities. Professor Blake Dear joins us to discuss the impact of mental health on the management of osteoarthritis and effective psychological treatments that can help to improve mental health in the long-term. Professor Blake Dear is a Senior Clinical Psychologist within the Department of Psychology at Macquarie University. Blake completed his postgraduate Masters training at the University of Western Sydney in 2006 and later completed his PhD in 2010. Blake is the Director of the eCentreClinic; a research unit that develops and evaluates a range of psychologically-based treatments for common mental health and chronic physical health conditions. He is passionate about increasing access to effective psychological treatment, particularly for adults struggling with chronic physical health conditions.

Dr Trudy Meehan PhD is a positive health lecturer and psychologist based at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. In this episode, she puts me in the Doctor's Chair to ask me some questions about self-development and my new Self-Development Club. Today, I talk about my Self-Development Club, explaining what started it, what it is, and why it's needed. I explain why pursuing health out of fear isn't effective, citing an old African proverb. I talk about who my club is for, and I note that, just like a sailboat in the middle of the ocean, you'll find yourself in a completely different place if you shift just one degree. I note that the past is fixed and explain why that's okay, and I talk about what it means to learn by doing “Fear is not a good motivator of long-term change.

Dr Margaret Ross is a Senior Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist from Melbourne, Australia and the Chief Principal Investigator for Australia's first psilocybin assisted psychotherapy study. Throughout her career, her main focus has been youth mental health and more recently cancer and palliative care. Following working as a research psychologist and clinical trial coordinator for The University of Melbourne and Orygen Youth Health, Margaret decided to move into researching alternatives for her oncology patients who were terrified of dying and experiencing existential distress in the face of their diagnosis. After seeing the compelling results of US-based research into the use of psilocybin assisted therapy for patients with existential distress in the face of terminal cancer, she decided to set on a fight so that similar treatments would soon become an option within Australia.

In this episode of the podcast, Dr Margaret Ross join us, she is the Chief Principal Investigator for Australia’s first psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy study. A true clinical researcher, Dr Ross combines oversight of this ground-breaking trial with palliative care clinical work in her role as Senior Clinical Psychologist at St Vincent’s Hospital in Melbourne.Prior to her work in the field of cancer care, Dr Ross’ focus was youth mental health, working as a research psychologist and clinical trial coordinator for The University of Melbourne and Orygen Youth Health.However, Dr Ross missed direct clinical work and felt drawn to cancer and palliative care. She thought her research days were behind her until she sought alternatives for her patients who were terrified of dying and experiencing existential distress in the face of their diagnosis.After seeing the compelling results of US-based research into the use of psilocybin assisted therapy for patients with existential distress in the face of terminal cancer, she assumed that a similar treatment would soon become an option within Australia. Yet no-one had been able to get the research approved.Dr Ross harnessed her expertise in clinical research to develop a research protocol and the research is now underway.→ Contact email for the psilocybin study: psilocybinstudy@svha.org.au→ Find out more about Dr Ross' research: www.researchgate.net/profile/Margaret_Ross8 The TruthLover podcast is presented by Love & Truth Party (www.loveandtruthparty.org) and features Author, Speaker, Transformational Coach, Retreat Leader, and Entrepreneur - Will Pye (www.willpye.com) in dialogue with fascinating visionaries and luminaries exploring Consciousness, the Nature of Reality, Awakened Activism, Individual Awakening and Collective Evolution, Science and Spirituality. ➠ While the podcast is offered freely, we invite you to give the gift of dana/donation if you find the content useful.

World Mental Health Day is on 10 October but we've wanted to do this episode for a long time now. This is an introductory episode to the structure and statistics of how mental health is approached in Singapore, greatly supported by our guest Dr. Pearlene Ng who is a Senior Clinical Psychologist! Did you know that there are only 4.4 psychiatrists and 8.3 psychologists per 100k population in our country? You may also have wondered what's the average cost of treatment in Singapore!

We have an open conversation in this episode where Elliot and Rovik share their own personal stories on mental health in the hope to encourage others to do the same in their own spaces.

I recently spoke to Dr Maragaret Ross, a Senior Clinical Psychologist at St Vincent’s Hospital in Melbourne. We spoke about her upcoming trial. For a long time, there has not been an antipodean star on the psychedelic research map, but the commencement of this study (and the resounding wave of public support it has generated) bode very well for the future of psychedelic research in Australia. As you will hear, Margaret attended a lecture on psychedelics and felt a visceral sense of responsibility to use her expertise and connections to help bring the psychedelic renaissance back to Australia. She did what many do not - she turned an intention into action and actually answered the call to adventure.

How men and women experience pain, arming yourself with the right information, and not being embarrassed about your condition. This edition’s been part funded by the Women’s Fund of Scotland. Do women and men experience pain differently, or is it only our attitudes towards pain that differ? In this edition of Airing Pain, Paul speaks to healthcare professionals about their findings with the literature surrounding chronic pain and the changing outlooks when it comes to seeking help. Deputy Director of the Bath Centre for Pain Research, Professor Ed Keogh, speaks about his review of men’s health literature in the context of chronic pain, and found that women are more likely to report pain in more body regions in their lifetime compared to men. He considers whether this is due to biological or social/emotional reasons, but emphasises that the variation within males and females is much greater than the variation between the sexes. Can the gender roles society pushes on us affect how we deal with our pain? Senior clinical psychologist of the National Specialist Pain Service in Bath Dr Gauntlett-Gilbert talks to Paul about how the societal expectations of how we handle pain can feed into depression and guilt. Specialist physiotherapist at UCL Hospitals’ Pain Management Centre Katrine Petersen discusses the lack of literature on men’s pain, especially pelvic pain, as well as her experiences in using physiotherapeutic strategies in the context of chronic pain syndromes. Contributors: Dr Ed Keogh, Deputy Director of Bath Centre for Pain Research, Bath University Katrine Petersen, Specialist Physiotherapist at University College London Hospitals’ Pain Management Centre Dr Jeremy Gauntlett-Gilbert, Senior Clinical Psychologist of the National Specialist Pain Service in Bath.
