Narrated in the first person, the book shows the effect of manic-depressive illness in family and romantic relationships, professional life, and self-awareness, and highlights both the detrimental effects of the illness and the few positive ones."]]> 2022-01-20 21:07:49 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2003839376 imhapuoft https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2003846081 2022-01-20 21:12:51 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2003846081 imhapuoft https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2003854344 2022-01-20 21:19:13 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2003854344 imhapuoft https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2003858025 2022-01-20 21:22:14 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2003858025 imhapuoft https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2007845143 2022-01-24 02:55:01 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2007845143 imhapuoft https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2012022187

He's a local Toronto psychiatrist, so very close to home!
"How Can I Help? portrays a week in the life of Dr. David Goldbloom as he treats patients, communicates with families, and trains staff at CAMH, the largest psychiatric facility in Canada. This highly readable and touching behind-the-scenes account of his daily encounters with a wide range of psychiatric concerns—from his own patients and their families to Emergency Department arrivals—puts a human face on an often misunderstood area of medical expertise. From schizophrenia and borderline personality disorder to post-traumatic stress syndrome and autism, How Can I Help? investigates a range of mental issues." ]]> 2022-01-26 02:58:19 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2012625889 https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2013729738 2022-01-26 15:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2013729738 https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2013784750 Mental Health is so important now so sharing the university's resources so we can stay well and hopeful! https://mentalhealth.utoronto.ca ]]> 2022-01-26 15:24:55 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2013784750 https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2013839681 Recently came across this app created by our very own UTSU in hopes of providing students with accessible and affordable mental health resources. You have access to 24/7 care and they coordinate with UHIP to ensure that it is covered. Proud of UTSU for creating something like this :)

The results will help inform their work with government and key stakeholders to support and address the mental health and well-being of the profession.

I came across this free CBT tool for Ontario Residents a couple of months ago. It is a non-crisis tool used for people who may be suffering from depression, anxiety, panic, PTSD, stress and other concerns impacting well-being. 

I have no personal experience with this online tool as of yet, however I wanted to share it in case there may be fellow students seeking CBT who cannot necessarily afford it or who want increased accessibility online!

COVID-19 has had a mental toll on everyone, one of the main groups being healthcare workers. CAMH has some helpful mental health resources (webpages, apps, and services) during these tough times.]]> 2022-01-26 18:17:57 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2014216500 https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2014229382 https://studentlife.utoronto.ca/service/mental-health-care/

A faculty member shared this resource with me, and advised that same-day appointments can be made and there are people there who will offer support in various ways, from speaking directly about mental health and stress management to dealing with school projects. I haven't used it yet but I know where to go if I need to reach out for some advice!]]> 2022-01-26 18:23:49 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2014229382 https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2014315051 "The thing is, when it comes to finding a therapist—just like with dating—you deserve to know what you’re getting yourself into"

One thing that really stood out to me was recommending we limit checking the news about COVID so frequently, and feel free to steer conversations away from COVID. It is overwhelming to cope with COVID in the workforce and it can be a lot to have conversations revolve around COVID in our free time as well. They also link some mental health resources for pharmacists and healthcare professionals at the bottom of the page!]]> 2022-01-27 02:01:49 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2014866215 https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2016174350 A great blog to check out written by people who experience mental illness themselves!]]> 2022-01-27 15:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2016174350 https://padlet.com/imhapuoft/x28impw0vb0l8hwk/wish/2016906733 A little can go a long way.
