The Counselling and Psychological Service (CAPS) and the Peer Counselling Association (PCA) hosts Mind your Madness, a series of lunchtime workshops that explores aspects of common emotional and psychological conditions.
 
The workshops will facilitate discussion on the myths and common misunderstandings about mental illness, explore the concept of "normal" and teach persons how to recognize the “madness” in all of us.
 
Workshops will be held on Thursdays starting February 18 until April 14. 
 
The series continues with the workshop,  Shameful & misunderstood: SUICIDE & SELF-HARM taking place from noon to 1.30pm.
 
This workshop addresses: Why do some people deliberately cause themselves pain? Is thinking about death or suicide even normal? Is self-harm an attempt to commit suicide? This workshop will help you to understand some of the complex issues that drive these thoughts and behaviours.
