    Depression feat. Ellie's story and Dr Dominique Thompson
    May 10 2021
    Have you felt the foreboding an persistent cloud that makes life more difficult? In our final episode of the season, we heard Ellie's story about her difficult and emotive experience of how she experiences depression, before Dr Dom Thompson joined Michael and Ellie to speak about her work in the field of mental health and depression, and even talk about mental health in nature for Mental Health Awareness Week. Depression is a persistent feeling of sadness that can last for weeks, months and more. It is often misunderstood by those not experiencing it. There are many forms and symptoms of depression, including low mood, low self-esteem, guilt, irritability, phases of mania, the inability to make decisions, absence of motivation, anxiety and more. Some people lose the experience of pleasure altogether. There are ways to treat depression, and one of the first steps is to see a doctor. Medication, getting temporary support do deal with life changing events, and talking therapies are ways some people are able to move through depression. Leave a review, give us 5 stars, and ask for more episodes :-) Thanks to all of the guests, the brave students and thank you for listening. Take care.

    Bereavement feat. Lin's story and Stephanie Owens from Dying Matters/Hospice UK
    May 3 2021
    Ever felt the loss of a bond and a relationship, and the painful steps it takes to recover and live life without someone? In this episode hear Lin’s story about her personal and emotional account of how she experienced bereavement, before Stephanie Owens from charity Dying Matters/Hospice UK joined Michael and Lin to speak about her experiences of bereavement. Bereavement and grief happens to the majority of us. We all experience it differently, although there can be some more common symptoms, such as anger, denial, sadness, shock, exhaustion and guilt. The way we process these symptoms can be different again. Some people can bury feelings until they are able to process them later in life, other people may self-medicate, seek numbing activities, or will need professional help. Bereavement and grief can have a huge and long lasting impact on us, particularly at key points in our life. Seeking help, talking about and processing grief, and working towards acceptance, can be important way that many of us to begin living and functioning with loss.

  • Marginalisation and mental health feat. Khadija's story and Deputy Mayor Asher Craig

    Marginalisation and mental health feat. Khadija's story and Deputy Mayor Asher Craig
    Apr 26 2021
    Have you been treated differently because of colour, because of clothing, because of assumptions about culture and faith? In this episode hear Khadija's sincere and sometimes challenging experience of how she has lived through marginalisation and how she is embraces faith and culture to heal and empower her, before Councillor Asher Craig (Deputy Mayor of Bristol) is joined by host Michael, and Khadija, to talk about marginalisation and mental health. Marginalised individuals, groups and communities, who are made to feel less important than the rest of society, experience greater rates of mental health issues. Minority ethnic groups, and in particular black people from African and Caribbean heritage, are more likely to experience serious and enduring mental health issues in the UK. Systemic racism has a huge impact on mental health. Health systems that are designed around Western/White cultures aren't always able to meet the needs of many marginalised communities. Identity, culture, faith and community can be integral in an individuals recovery, opposed to individualism and self-directed care.
