Our recent report with @orygen_aus found many young people are suffering from poor mental health due to cost-of-living anxieties. Investment in youth-specific housing & increased income support payments are needed to give young people a chance to thrive. #WorldMentalHealthDay

So proud to announce the official launch of Mello - a free, evidence-based app to help the 1.3 million young Australians struggling with mental ill-health. The app works by targeting stuck thinking (worry/rumination). Download it in Oz for free - check out mello.org.au/
We're excited to introduce Orygen Digital's newest innovation, Mello: a free app designed to address stuck thinking.
It combines practical techniques with tailored therapy activities – and a recent trial found it eased stuck thinking for 83% of users.

In mental health, we know early intervention works. So, what if we could identify who might develop bipolar disorder (BD) years in advance?
New research, led by Orygen Senior Research Fellow @_ratheeshaswin, shows that may not be as distant as we think. 🔗bit.ly/3MkPBx1
