Taboo?

I attended a session this evening (by conference call & Internet) organised by my work about mental health in the work place.

The speakers were excellent, I was touched by their honesty and openness about their experiences. I was also touched by the honesty of the attendees.

Despite the challenges of 'virtually attending' the session (people filling their coffee cups next to the mic!) - I found it really interesting & useful.

The key message that all the speakers reinforced was the importance of talking about mental health issues to start changing perceptions & remove the stigma.

Hope you've had a great day Peeps!
