  1. "Crying Shame" - The Nuances of Mens' Mental Health

    "Crying Shame" - The Nuances of Mens' Mental Health

    “One of the issues I have [with depression] is that I don’t want to drag other people down. It’s a kind of pre-judgement about the situation - the other person might not even feel like that, but I don’t want to kill the mood. There’s a lot of internalised shame around what it means to be a man.” On this week’s episode, I’m joined by Michael, an extremely eloquent young author, who speaks about the complex nuances that can prevent men from seeking help for mental health problems, as well as what he personally does to cope. Sinead also joins us, supporting Michael’s views and discussing the men’s mental health campaign that she has recently launched.

    "He Would Always Find Us" - Growing up in a Violent Household

    ‘We couldn’t just leave. We would have to rent a cabin where my dad couldn’t find us’. What happens when your biggest role model becomes terrifying and tyrannical? How do children of violent abusers deal with the memories later in life? We explore these topics with Belinda Wood as she tells us about what it was like growing up in fear of her father, and how her own marriage has been affected.

    I’m joined today by Doctor Prash Puspanathan, a doctor of medicine at the Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. Dr. Prash has a Masters in Psychological Medicine and is currently a psychiatric registrar with special interest in the use of psychedelic substances in the treatment of psychological conditions. These conditions include PTSD, treatment resistant depression and the anxiety that comes with terminal illness.

    "It's a Superpower" - What it's Really like to Have Multiple Personalities

    Betterhelp: www.betterhelp.com/allmadhere Today I speak to the person who inspired me to start this podcast, and who experiences arguably one of the most misunderstood conditions in psychological literature. Amber is a trans-female data analyst living in Newcastle Australia who has dissociative identity disorder, or what is popularly known as 'multiple personality disorder'. She has been a 'multiple' for most of her adult life, and has been working deeply to understand and accept her identities. She describes her experience as being 'like living in a share-house. I don't have any control over what anyone else does, I can only make sure that everyone is happy'. She describes how having multiple identities impacts her romantic relationships, and how having a 'team' of identities on hand is a bit like having a superpower.

  6. "Empathy Fatigue" - Burnout in Helping Professions

    ٠٩‏/١١‏/١٤٣٩ هـ

    "Empathy Fatigue" - Burnout in Helping Professions

    Burnout and empathy fatigue are highly under-recognised problems amongst those who work in helping professions. Mental health issues in these jobs are incredibly common. Today, my guest Caitlin addresses these topics. Caitlin is a mental health worker delivering rehab programs to inmates within the prison system. She has experienced significant mental health issues of her own due to the heavy emotional stress of her job. She speaks to us today about how her clients are ‘let down the by the system’, and how ‘offending doesn’t happen in a vacuum”. She will also talk about how carers and those in helping professions such as teaching, medicine, and mental health can end up burning out because of the high level of empathy required to do their jobs. She will share what helped her during her worst times, and offer a message of solidarity.
