Nearly half of all Australians (45 per cent) will experience some form of mental illness during their lifetime, and those who don’t will most likely know someone that does.
Books on Prescription is a program that helps you manage your mental health using self-help reading. The scheme is endorsed by health professionals and available through your local public library. The books provide helpful information and step-by-step self-help techniques for managing common conditions including depression, anxiety, stress and eating disorders. As part of treatment your GP, psychologist or another health professional may recommend a self-help book from the Books on Prescription collection. These books are also available for anyone to borrow.
