Trigger warning: this episode includes discussions around medication for mental health and suicidal thoughts.
Please note: If you are experiencing side effects from your medication, go back and check with GP if any side effects don’t go away, there are lots of different options to try.
In this episode of Stigma to Strength, Ginya talks to fellow student ambassadors, Amy and Sophie, about the stigma around taking medication for mental health conditions such as depression and anxiety. The conversation covers a fascinating range of views and experiences which we think a huge number of young people will relate to. They also cover issues such as their experiences of side effects, combining medication with talking therapies, and the importance of self-care.
