Mental Health

Living and working in rural and remote communities can at times be a stressful experience. People who live and work in these areas can experience additional pressures such as social isolation, financial hardship, lack of employment opportunities, and natural disasters such as fire, flood or drought. You or someone you know may feel:

that you have to manage stressful situations alone
unable to cope and feel embarrassed about it
unable to manage on your own
unable to confide in family or friends.

Often, these pressures can have a major impact on your mental health and wellbeing and you may experience symptoms of anxiety, depression or other health related issues. https://www.qld.gov.au/health/mental-health/rural/index.html
