Everything about COVID-19 and mental health
We went to collect all the different COVID-19 resources we had seen floating around the internet, and found Life in Mind Australia had already done it for us!
It’s a very comprehensive list. It includes:
- General info about COVID
- Mental health information sheets, in a time of COVID
- Online help services
- Specific help services: eating disorders, rural health, LGBTI, children’s mental health, and much more!
