We've made everyone feel more comfortable that it's okay to suffer with depression or with anxiety.
Imagine a world where mental health isn't about labels and diagnoses but about understanding and connection. That's the vision behind 'ReAwaken', a podcast by the HUMANE Clinic. In this thought-provoking first episode, hosts Matt Ball and Stephanie Mitchell tackle the heavy topic of how mental health systems have been 'colonised'. They argue that the current approach often makes people feel like there's something inherently wrong with them, rather than understanding their lived experiences.
The conversation shifts paradigms, suggesting that mental health should be more about human stories and less about medicalisation. Matt and Stephanie dive into the importance of normalising addiction and recognising the power of hope and resilience in recovery. Stephanie's words, 'Hope can take the worst thing and turn it around', resonate deeply as they discuss the spiritual emergence movement and its potential for healing.
If you're tired of the same old mental health narratives, this episode offers a fresh perspective that might just change how you see things.
