This podcast was born out of my pandemic experience and the belief that there is always something to learn by listening to someone else's story. My story isn't special, it's simply the case that in 2020/2021, I felt angry, frustrated, resentful, trapped and unheard so in an attempt to articulate and reconcile those feelings, I decided to share the impact of the pandemic on my life and health via a podcast. Fast forward to now and a bit of 'processing' later, it's time for a new topic of conversation and, with the world as it is now, I can think of no better focus than 'Happiness'.

The Relative Perspective - Season 2 - May

I’ve been somewhat inundated with emails this week about Mental Health Awareness Week and I’ve seen so many posts on social media (including professional networks) about mental health that I really couldn’t let this week pass without making a contribution myself.

Therefore, off on a tangent to what I initially planned, this month’s podcast is about mental health. As ever, there is an update from me (about me) and in this episode, I share my mental health experiences, before, during and after the pandemic. I apologise in advance for the length of the episode. As ever, I have a lot to say!

With 47.6 million posts about mental health on Instagram and 21.1 million posts with the tag ‘mentalhealthawareness’, this episode barely scratches the surface and so it won’t be the last episode I do about this topic.

If you are worried about listening to this episode or you find discussion about mental health triggering, please take steps to protect yourself and perhaps skip May’s episode. I hope you can access the mental health services and treatments you deserve and need and hope these links help: ⁠https://www.mind.org.uk⁠, ⁠https://www.nhs.uk/every-mind-matters/coronavirus/⁠, ⁠https://www.mind.org.uk/coronavirus-we-are-here-for-you/coronavirus-research/⁠, ⁠https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-mental-health-and-wellbeing-surveillance-report⁠, ⁠https://www.local.gov.uk/public-mental-health-and-wellbeing-and-covid-19⁠, ⁠https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/10/9/e040620⁠, ⁠https://www.bmj.com/content/380/bmj-2022-074224/rr-2⁠, ⁠https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk⁠, ⁠https://www.samaritans.org⁠ and ⁠https://www.priorygroup.com/mental-health⁠.
