I think one of the things you have to do is forgive yourself, right, you know, I probably did, but I mean that's one of the things I've had to work out and work on.
Ever wondered what it takes for someone to break free from the chains of mental health stigma? Murray Drew's story is a compelling example. Struggling with depression and hypomania, Murray once believed he'd rather die than ask for help. It wasn't until his wife issued a stark ultimatum—seek professional help or leave—that he finally took the first step towards recovery. Initially, he chose the door. However, this turning point marked the beginning of a profound transformation.
In this episode of 'MENtal Health: It's Time to Talk', Murray opens up about his journey from denial to becoming a vocal advocate for mental health. He now shares his experiences with students at the University of Saskatchewan, emphasizing that helping others has become his most powerful antidepressant. Allan Kehler, with his empathetic approach, guides this heartfelt conversation, shedding light on the importance of breaking the silence and seeking help.
If you're looking for inspiration to start your own mental health journey or to support someone else, this episode is a must-listen.
