Charlotte is a Paediatric Diabetes Dietitian and she confidently talks about living with Bipolar Disorder. Fine Arts was her beginnings and since becoming a Dietitian she has valued the strong importance of self care at any stage of life.
We recognise that there is still stigma to talking about mental health and especially acknowledging this with our patients. Charlotte highlights such great points that she has found useful in helping her with managing her condition alongside work. She has experienced first hand of what antipsychotic medication can do to physical health and the amount of self blame she carried during this time. Her career journey has made her an even better dietitian and an invaluable communicator with her patients.
She concludes that at the end of the day people with mental health can live a normal life with the right support!
Great listen not to miss, we hope you enjoy.
