The CHI Study

Chi Logo

Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society (ARCSHS), La Trobe University, Melbourne.

The CHI (Charting Health Impacts) Study is about the impact of hepatitis C on peoples’ lives. The study follows a group of people over time – looking at all the health and social aspects of life – so they can tell community organisations, doctors and governments what it is really like to live with hepatitis C.

Joining the study involves taking an anonymous online survey, which you can take your time completing. We then contact you in three to six months so you can tell us how things have changed for you.

If you have ever been told that you have hepatitis C (even if you have had treatment since then) and you are interested in participating in the study, or if you just want to find out more about the project and hepatitis C, you can access the Chi Study on line at www.chistudy.org.au .

Please be sure to let your experience count and let us know about how hepatitis C has affected you.

The Happiness Trap

Popular ideas about happiness are misleading, inaccurate and are directly contributing to our current epidemic of stress, anxiety and depression.  And unfortunately, popular psychological approaches are making it even worse!

Sex toys

There are sex toys for almost every use you could possibly imagine. Vibrators are often dildo-shaped, but may be shorter for anal use, or curved to reach the G-spot. The rabbit vibrator has “bunny ears” to sit both sides of the clitoris.
