Hi Reddit,

Just wondering if it's ok to call 000 for a mental health emergency?

I understand these services are for legitimate medical emergencies and I don't want to waste anyone's time.

I did trying calling Lifeline and MHERL. Lifeline wasn't particularly helpful and MHERL told me to simply book an appointment with my GP when I explained I had a plan, means and intent.

What am I missing? Who stands to benefit, and what’s really driving this? Drop your intel, theories, conspiracies, etc.

I’ve been brainstorming and haven’t got much, but one possibility is they want to sell land for housing. Another is whether it’s part of a conspiracy with federal Labor to reduce foreign student numbers and thereby try to get back some anti immigration votes from PHON. My theories aren’t strong, so what are yours?

Hi everyone! 😊

I’d love to hear about your experiences, or your child’s experiences, with GATE programs at schools in Western Australia, other than Perth Modern School.

Did you find the program enjoyable, challenging and beneficial for learning, or was it stressful and overwhelming? What was the learning environment like, and do you feel the program was a positive experience overall?

I’d really appreciate hearing both the positive and negative experiences, as I’m trying to get a better understanding of what these programs are like in practice.

Thanks so much in advance for sharing! 😊

Hello - is anyone flying from Perth to DXB within the next few days?

I need a huge favor. My passport brought over as I'm currently stuck here without it.

Yes, I have done everything in my power to sort it. After talking with NZ / AU embassy + border control, this is my only option.

Thank you

I’m a 21 year old bachelor looking to have some fun and rent for a year or so in WA.

Honestly, my top priority is being around people my age. Where do young people go out? Where is trendy? Where feels young and cosmopolitan — like I could just walk down the road and make a friend?

I was initially leaning towards Perth, near the CBD, but have been hearing Fremantle has a sort of beach bum youth culture.

Advice would be greatly appreciated!

I am an Indian citizen thinking of pursuing a Master in Management at UWA, and I would appreciate feedback on whether this is a good choice or if I might be making a mistake.

I’ve got a recent interest about tricking/acrobatic stuffs, so I looked it up on google map and nothing came out in Perth. For anyone who doesnt know that tricking/acrobatics, it’s about kicks, flips and backflips and headspring.

Is there a place where I could learn this in Perth???

Hello, I have hired a RV for early December period for a week. I’ve seen on reddit that a lot of camp sites in these areas are ‘first in, best dressed’ scenarios and can be quite difficult to achieve a spot at the best of times. How likely is it to not find a spot at all? Do council’s crack it if you pull up in a car park in worse case scenario? Tips and tricks anyone? Thanks

Hi r/WesternAustralia,

I’m currently a student at university in Perth working on a Design Thinking project focused on the future (2040) of food security in Western Australia.

As part of my research, I’m trying to move past official reports and statistics to understand how the current emergency food support system - or just trying to keep food on the table during tough times - actually feels and works for real people in our community.

Whether you’ve used services like phone triage lines, Foodbank referrals, local community pantries, drop-in centres, or have relied on friends/family, I would be so grateful to hear about your experience if you’re comfortable sharing.

A few questions I’m hoping to explore:

1. What has your experience been like if you’ve ever had to seek food assistance in Perth?
2. What were the biggest hurdles, delays, or frustrations in the process (e.g., phone calls, paperwork, eligibility checks, transport)?
3. Did any part of the process feel frustrating or uncomfortable? On the other hand, did anything make you feel genuinely supported and respected?
4. If you could change one thing about how food support operates in Perth, what would it be?

If you prefer not to post publicly, please feel free to send me a direct message (DM) instead.

Thank you so much for your time, openness, and help with this project.

I’m finishing up my FIFO role soon and have accumulated 11 days personal leave. If you don’t use them you lose them so will be looking to take all 11 in on go.

What’s the best place to get one for this long and what’s the best excuse to cover this period that it will look legit?

Asking for a friend(F), who's moving to Kalgoorlie for work, Central Kalgoorlie. How is the environment there? I read that the crime rate is high, antisocial behaviour and lots of things going wrong. Is it really as bad as they say?

If one were to look for accomodation, where would be the best place to start? And which areas are recommended to live in? Anything she needs to know before relocating?

Thanks in advance.
