A new video series produced by Adelaide University's ifarmwell team aims to reduce the stigma around mental health issues among Australian farmers. The five-part series includes personal stories from farmers dealing with postnatal depression, grief, relationship problems, and isolation, along with guidance from a rural GP on accessing support. The initiative is part of the 'Weather it together' campaign, which promotes self-care and open communication within farming communities.

Farmers like Ashley Schmidt share how seeking help improved their quality of life, while local GP Dr. Justin Gladman highlights the importance of addressing mental health in rural areas.
