Similes Brussels:
Mental Health Week 2022
The objective of the mental health week is multiple: to care, to destigmatize and to inform about mental health. Also, the Brussels Health League told us a little more about the particular context of this week "This year, special attention is given to the mental health of young people and young adults, they who are in search of future and construction, as well as all other generations and social and educational actors gravitating around them. This week invites us to question ourselves, Mental Health and Youth. How to (re)build together today and tomorrow?
Similes Brussels and the Mutualité Chrétienne organized activities around the mental health week in two stages: the holding of stands with an exhibition of the roll-ups obtained at the Brussels Mental Health Consultation Platform, and the organization of a conference on "Psychic disorders: better understanding them to better communicate".
For the first step, invitations were sent to the structures and institutions present in Ixelles to inform them of the stand during the week. Some staff members of the Mutualité Chrétienne and Similes Bruxelles were present to explain the objective of the week, to present the roll-ups and to answer the different questions.
The second stage of the event included the expertise of Leyla Gomez, a psychosocial counsellor at SIMILES Brussels, a key player in working with families and friends of people with mental health problems. Indeed, to answer the question of how to (re)build oneself together, today and tomorrow, if not surrounded by one's loved ones, the psychosocial speaker presented the psychosocial aspects of four (4) forms of mental disorders: bipolarity, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorders and anxiety disorders.
After the conference, we welcomed Franck Struyve, referent in Bxl for the mutual health participation department of the CM. He presented us the "health promotion" approach of the Christian Mutuality and some useful tools to discover.
We also welcomed Luc Detavernier, Director of the Brussels Platform for Mental Health and Laura Meesen, project and communication officer at Rézone, the local branch of the Brussels "PSY 107" network.
