<strong>AMSA</strong> MENTAL HEALTH<br />
<strong>AMSA</strong> Mental Health advocates for the wellbeing of medical<br />
students across Australia and spreads awareness on issues and<br />
conditions impacting on people's mental health. We continue to<br />

mental health conditions, and destigmatise the struggle of living<br />
with mental illness. <strong>AMSA</strong> Mental Health aims to create an open<br />
and supportive environment for students to engage in the<br />
discussion around mental health topics to acknowledge mental<br />
health as an important aspect of our lives.<br />
