Today I speak to Debz, who is someone I have heard speak twice at Hope Street. She is a bubbly and positive person who shares openly about her issues with wellbeing and mental health to help others. Debz was once told by a senior mental health professional that she was a very unusual case! She talks about her deep depression and anxiety and shares ideas to help people to navigate difficult times.
We talk about….
- The impact of trauma on mental health.
- The sudden emergence of acute anxiety and depression at 30.
- The importance of purpose and meaning.
- Medication and the issues surrounding it.
- The patchy provision and postcode lottery of mental health provision and support.
- The importance of social prescribing through organisations such as Hope Street.
- The power of hearing from others with lived experience.
- Advice and way of improving and feeling better.
- On the beauty and importance of life and why you should never ever give up!!!
