World Mental Health
World Mental Health: Problems and Priorities in Low-income Countries | Robert Desjarlais
3 posts | 1 to read
The book is the result of several years of collaboration between experts from more than 19 countries and researchers in the Department of Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School. The authors examine key findings on mental illness and mental health services; suicide; substance abuse; the mental health problems of women, children and the elderly; violence; dislocation; and health-related behavior in Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East. They recommend new actions in mental health services, in public health and public policy, as well as an agenda for research. For all who are interested in the global context of mental health and in development, this very readable volume with its numerous case studies, illustrations and tables will be an invaluable resource.

1. So far so good. I'm halfway through the day.
2. I follow some Facebook groups on mental health. I follow one person by newsletter/blogs. But she's been mostly selling her stuff the last year so I can't do that.
I'm about to walk into one of my happy places. 😊

World Mental Health Day, 2020.

A friend of mine shared this within the last few days and I felt the questions and responses were relevant and constructive. So many of them are things I need to actively engage in and remember to make habits of myself.

By the end of the day I‘ll have moved my body to music twice. (See #6!)

Take care of yourself in ALL the ways.
You are needed here. 💜
