The carcasses of dead kangaroos lie next to empty water troughs. There is no birdsong.<\/p>\n<p>Some say it has been the worst drought in a century here across the central and eastern part of Australia. As in other parts of the world, climate change and land clearing are driving soaring temperatures and extreme weather events, including heatwaves and droughts. Australia already sees several weeks each year when temperatures climb above 45\u00baC, but few people were prepared for the drying-up of dams and waterways.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph paragraph--text\">\n<p>Food insecurity is now a real threat in parts of the country as livestock and wildlife are dying in inner New South Wales (NSW). Farmers are struggling; rates of depression and anxiety are increasing among those who stay.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was sleeping for 15 hours a day,\u201d says Richard, a cattle farmer living near White Cliffs in western NSW. \u201cI felt so sick and tired I thought I had cancer. But it was depression.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His depression hit just before this drought, and was brought on, he thinks, by extreme stress and family issues. But drought only adds to farmers\u2019 stress: it degrades the land, which makes it harder to earn a living.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, a study from the University of Newcastle in NSW found that farmers in rural parts of the state experienced \u201csignificant stress about the effects of drought on themselves, their families and their communities\u201d. Other research suggests that income insecurity related to drought increases the risk of suicide among farmers.<\/p>\n<p>Psychologist Pat Dudgeon at the University of Western Australia is used to people suffering in response to extreme stress. She was Australia\u2019s first Aboriginal psychologist, and specialised in suicide prevention because of the mental health issues in her community in the Kimberley, a region of north-west Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout Australia, rates of suicide have increased dramatically for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people over the past 30 years. The rise is due to ongoing issues of racism, poverty and intergenerational pain, the legacy of centuries of colonisation and mistreatment by British and Australian governments. For instance, many Aboriginal people have had their land taken from them and been forcibly removed to live in missions or be fostered by non-Aboriginal people.<\/p>\n<p>Dudgeon believes many lessons can be learned about grief and trauma from the loss of land and culture that Aboriginal people have experienced. She says psychology can move away from the Western tradition of expert and patient, towards a more narrative form based on Aboriginal traditions and reconnecting with the land. And as more psychologists begin to incorporate these Aboriginal concepts into their practice, such a combined approach might help farmers dealing with drought to reconnect with the land and improve their mental health, too.<\/p>\n<h4>Reference:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Pat Dudgeon has used\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/30588837\">yarning as a research method<\/a>, published research on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/25310135\">participatory action<\/a>\u00a0and led the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychology.org.au\/About-Us\/who-we-are\/reconciliation-and-the-APS\/Australian-Indigenous-Psychology-Education-Project\">Australian Indigenous Psychology Education Project<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Colin Rigby\u2019s research on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mhpn.org.au\/Uploads\/Documents\/Webinars\/External%20Resouces\/2011%20Rigby%20Rosen%20Berry.RAMHP%20Aboriginal%20people.pdf\">impact of prolonged drought<\/a>\u00a0in Aboriginal communities was published in 2011.<\/li>\n<li>Research in 2018 found farmers were at risk of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/30041594\">drought-related stress<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Ivan Lin and colleagues have written about applying\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.publish.csiro.au\/py\/PY16051\">clinical yarning<\/a>\u00a0to improve communicaton in Aboriginal health care.<\/li>\n<li>Monique Auger described and interpreted 11 qualitative studies of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ir.lib.uwo.ca\/cgi\/viewcontent.cgi?article=1302&amp;context=iipj\">cultural continuity<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>ABC News reported on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/rural\/2018-07-29\/the-big-dry-see-us-hear-us-help-us\/10030010\">effects of the current drought on farmers<\/a>\u00a0in 2018.<\/li>\n<li>The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crrmh.com.au\/\">Centre for Rural and Remote Mental Health<\/a>\u00a0has information about the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crrmh.com.au\/programs-and-projects\/aboriginal-wellbeing\/we-yarn\/\">We-Yarn workshop<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Glenn Albrecht wrote about\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/the-age-of-solastalgia-8337\">solastalgia<\/a>\u00a0for the Conversation in 2011.<\/li>\n<li>Katharine Murphy recently wrote about\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/australia-news\/2019\/mar\/16\/remember-morrisons-black-rock-stunt-well-look-whos-scared-now\">political clashes over coal<\/a>\u00a0for the Guardian.<\/li>\n<li>The charges against\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/changingtimes.media\/2018\/06\/05\/fighting-coal-mine-expansion-charges-against-australias-wollar-three-are-dismissed\/\">Beverley Smiles<\/a>\u00a0were dismissed in 2018.<\/li>\n<li>Kirsten Banks explains some aspects of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/commentisfree\/2018\/may\/21\/aboriginal-astronomy-can-teach-us-about-the-link-between-sky-and-land\">Aboriginal astronomy<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><iframe style=\"width: 100%; height: 750px; border: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/online.visual-paradigm.com\/share\/book\/how-an-aboriginal-approach-to-mental-health-is-helping-farmers-deal-with-drought-ztj36et64?enforceShowPromotionBar=true\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10357,"template":"","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_title":"","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Design flipbooks online.
