#14 Diary of a breakdown. What happens when everything falls apart?

In this episode I share a personal story of a breakdown I had when I was 20. 

Breakdowns or mental disorders are often stigmatized and pathologised in society, which leads people to miss the gifts that these breakdowns may hold. How would it be to see breakdowns as an essential part of life?

 

In this podcast I go into:

• The full story of this breakdown, context and how I navigated my way through
• How a mentor helped me reframe this breakdown to see it in a different light
• How can we learn to work with breakdowns to spiral into new ways of being in the world?

Disclaimer: I am not a qualified therapist, this podcast is designed to share my story to hopefully destigmatise mental health a little. Although I navigated this time mostly on my own I would not recommend this.

If you are struggling  with a mental disorder or are a danger to yourself or others it is important to reach out to mental health organisation for support. There are many organisations who can support.
