Mental Health Care - , ,
NiIRA is a not-for-profit organisation and is not affiliated with any Government or commercial body. Those who contribute to NiIRA share a common passion in assessing, treating, researching and educating the public and professionals about the conditions which are commonly dubbed 'internet addictions', or 'pathological internet misuse'. NiIRA advocates that such conditions are complex in nature and often overlap with common mental health disorders. It should also be made aware that these conditions can be shaped by the cultural, traditional and social context of the person and their family. NiIRA has two broad aims: Firstly, providing education to the public via an open-access section aimed at concerned families, carers, the clients themselves, as well as school counsellors. This open-access section contains helpful and practical resources, objective information, and topical research from Australia, and around the world. Secondly, a section aimed at bringing together interested clinicians, professionals and researchers to share and discuss research and clinical developments in the field. Our goal is to promote discussion, debate and dissemination of topics related to the internet and wellbeing, worldwide.
