Topic Tuesday // Let’s Chat: Chronic Pain & Mental Health // Tues 1st March, 7:00-8:30PM AEDT
Hi SANE Lived Experience Forum,
Many of our community here on the forums have mentioned that they live not only with the challenges that come with Complex Mental health but also with Chronic Pain.
We are curious to explore the connection between the two and share more information around this topic and living with chronic pain.
So, we invite you to join us for this discussion and look forward to hearing from your own experiences and questions you’d like to put forward to our guest.
Please join the discussion here on Tuesday the 1st of March 2022 from 7:00pm-8:30pm AEDT to follow this conversation.

Hi Everyone 👋,
We will be kicking off this Topic Tuesday discussion on Chronic Pain in about 30 mins and looking forward to having you join us live or later on after the event.
It actually came as a direct suggestion from our community here on the forums & feel it will be an informative and robust conversation.
This discussion will touch on what Chronic Pain is, pathways in finding support & how it intersects with mental health and our overall wellbeing.
Our guest for tonight is @Former-Member , one of our colleagues from the SANE help centre.
They bring a lived experience of living with chronic pain as well as supporting others in this space.
This is a chance for us to learn from each other, as well as contribute any of our own experiences for the benefit of the community 😊
Tagging those who supported this post and may be interested
