Mentally-Healthy Details
In our 2018 study of the creative, media and marketing industry, we found that more than half of us displayed signs of mild to severe anxiety and depression. Look around you – chances are that someone near you may also be feeling the same. We work in a fast-paced, erratic industry where what you planned to do by the end of the day can all go to sh!t by lunchtime. Everything from long hours, a lack of meaningful work, and a feeling that you have no control over what you do can all affect your mental health. Some days may be easier or worse than others. However, if you're consistently feeling down, unmotivated, agitated, or worthless for longer than 2 weeks, there's a chance that something more serious could be at play. Mentally Healthy is a movement to improve our industry's capacity to cope with and improve our levels of mental health. Mentally Healthy is driven by a group of volunteers working in our industry who are focused on empowering the creative, media and marketing industry to smash the stigma around mental health. It's guided by UnLtd, Never Not Creative and Energx who provide resource, leadership and facilitation. The group launched in 2019 and has so far facilitated many events on the topic, published the Heart On My Sleeve story book of industry leaders and introduced Minimum Standards for Mental Health for our industry. Learn more from our website (www.mentally-healthy.org), built and managed by the volunteers in the group, with the aim to make it more accessible for people in our industry to find help, resources and information around mental health, curated specifically for our industry. Follow us to stay up-to-date with work our volunteers are doing to make a difference in our industry.And if you need help or know someone experiencing a mental health issue, please seek professional help and contact your GP. If you're based in Australia, please contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 for support or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636.
