Did you know the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA)
has a number of innovative websites and free mobile
applications (apps) which you can use to help manage
your mental health and wellbeing concerns whenever and
wherever you need?
Taking action early is the key to good mental health. The
At Ease portal is DVA’s ‘one stop shop’ to access a
wide range of online mental health and wellbeing
resources.
If you’re looking for simple, relevant information
and advice to help recognise the symptoms of poor mental
health, or to keep your family healthy while caring for
someone with a mental health condition, the
At Ease Veterans and Veterans Families website is
the place to start.
Or, perhaps like many others you’ve made the decision
to find the ‘right balance' of alcohol, diet and
exercise. If so, use the
Right Mix Your Health & Alcohol website and the
On Track with the Right Mix app to help achieve a
healthier lifestyle.
To combat your stress levels and help you relax and
unwind, use the simple tools found on the
High Res resilience website. You can also use the
High Res app to help manage your immediate reactions
to stressful situations on-the-go.
If you are concerned about suicide awareness and
suicide prevention within the veteran community, access
the dedicated
Operation Life Online website to learn how you can
help those at risk.
Remember, information to help you and your family
cope with a range of mental health and wellbeing issues
is readily available at your fingertips – simply check

At Ease portal
