In episode 3 of The Common Thread, ‘Outback’ explores the vast emptiness we can feel inside, the stigma and lack of support in remote areas, and despite this, the powerful stories of hope that arise out of isolation. “Behind closed doors, everyone’s having their own battles, it’s just up to you if you want to share that story or if you want to keep that inside where it hurts.”
The Common Thread is a 6 x 5-8min video series in which Australians from all walks of life share their journeys with mental health, and tell us about the tools and tactics that have supported their recovery. Episode 5 is called ‘City’ and drops next Tuesday, August 6.
