How to stop the next wave: Our mental health crisis

The mental health consequences of COVID-19 are being described as the next wave of the pandemic. The pain of this pandemic could last for years, even if the medical emergency ends soon.

Calls to Lifeline have increased and new research from Sydney University’s Brain and Mind Centre predicts that under a best case scenario rates of suicide will rise by 14 per cent over the next five years. So how do we try and stop that from happening? On today's episode we speak to Professor Ian Hickie the director of the Brain and Mind centre.

In today's news headlines:

  • Queensland is shutting out all of Greater Sydney after two Covid-19 positive teens sneak in
  • Melbourne police break car window in dramatic arrest of viral Covid-19 sceptic
  • Young Australians incomes’ have actually gone backwards
  • Lorde, Sia, Rihanna sign letter demanding politicians ask before playing songs at rallies

If you're feeling overwhelmed or having difficulty coping or staying safe. You can call 13 11 14 for confidential one-to-one support with a trained Lifeline telephone crisis supporter. Or visit headspace.org.au to find your nearest centre, or go and see your local doctor.
