It should be encouraged more often at work place.

Factually the course is good, providing a good description of symptoms to look out for and what help is there. But the training says not everything works for everyone and you its not something simple to just "don't think like that" or "suck it up". Yet later on the course says "Just don't think negatively", " Just set and achieve a goal", "Just talk to someone" as if it isn't the same as saying "Just don't be sad". As someone who has suffered from mental health I found it very insensitive as it isn't that simple to "just do this", and ignores the fact that people struggling may well be struggling with even those. The course should be limited to explaining what mental illness is, what the symptoms to look for within yourself and your colleagues, and explaining what help there is. the video explaining what mindfulness was and suggesting trying it the video is good, as it lets people try it or keep it in mind when they might need to try

This training gave me a good understanding of the most commonly diagnosed metal health conditions . I would like to think it will allow me to offer some basic support to somebody who may be struggling. It also helped me to re-set my own thoughts by providing guidance that I may use personally in the future.

very useful tool

Great lesson
