Madness, insanity, and being mental are core to the stigma around mental health. Whilst the depression and anxiety have become more accepted, much of mental health is still poorly understood and draped in stigma, such as psychosis. To get to the core of this Andrew spoke to Clinical Psychologist and associate professor in UCD Dr Keith Gaynor. He is an expert on psychosis and mental health, particularly in young adults. We perceive mental health as normal emotions gone awry, and as such, we discussed psychosis in typical terms of our daily life.
An excellent example which Keith describes is how one day a colleague was finishing a project and on the final stroke, their computer crashed. In a moment of despair, they said "the computer department are out to get me'. We have all experienced this to some degree, but how is your understanding of psychosis? Of how it happens, how it has previously been studied and the history of treatments, understanding and stigma. We discuss it all in the season 4 opener! https://www.patreon.com/LivingRoomLogic
