Wellbeing - Gary and His Story - Mental Health and Medication - Hope Street Podcast

Episode 83,   Jul 07, 2023, 08:37 PM

Warning – This podcast contains mentions of suicide. 

Today, I speak to Gary, a Hope Street regular. We talk about his issues with depression, being institutionalised, and medication. Gary has had some difficult times and tells an important story. Our chat on medication highlights how small changes in dosage can have big impacts and how it can take many months for changes to take effect.
