This week my guest, Graham Roberts, and I openly discuss some challenging aspects of mental health. Graham willingly and compassionately shares the ups and downs of his own mental health journey.
WARNING: Please be aware that within this conversation we discuss suicidal thoughts and ideation - particularly at the 6 -7 minute mark. If you suspect this conversation might be an unhelpful trigger for you then this might be one to skip.
As you will hear us say, whilst it can be difficult, it is important and absolutely a sign of strength to seek help and support when we need it - something both Graham and I have done at times.
Please seek specialised help if this conversation triggers you or if you feel you need someone to talk to.
