⚠ Trigger warning: child abuse, (sexual, physical and emotional), psychosis, alcohol and use of recreational drugs.
“People were stunned that someone had spoken so openly about, not just mental illness, but also severe mental illness in terms of psychosis and being so unwell that you were sectioned.
As a society, we tend to swallow our shame. We hide the things we worry about, we hide the things we don’t want to talk about. But if you are talking about those things…things that are real and that are authentic and that are your experience, then people with the same experience will feel safer and supported to perhaps talk about it themselves.”
Will’s story about the abuse he suffered as a child and his experience of mental illness as an adult is just one audio clip from The Light Inside, a powerful short film about living with mental illness.
