The vicious circle: housing and mental illness |
|
New research from SANE Australia reveals that high rent and stigma are among the most serious challenges faced by people living with a mental illness looking for housing, and that the period around hospitalisation is when they are especially vulnerable to losing their home. Read more about the SANE Research Bulletin: Housing and Mental Illness, or download from our Research page.
Suicide and mental illness
People affected by mental illness are at higher risk of suicidal thoughts, or of ending their own life, than the general population. See the SANE Factsheets on how to get help when you or someone you care for feels suicidal.
