Journalist Elfy Scott grew up in a household where her mother's schizophrenia was rarely spoken about. For many years, this complex mental health condition was treated as an open secret, until she was told about her mother’s condition by a school counsellor. Her book ‘The One Thing We’ve Never Spoken About’ explores why schizophrenia is still such a taboo topic.
In this episode of the Briefing, we discuss why complex conditions like schizophrenia have been left behind while more common conditions like anxiety and depression are now more widely spoken about.
