Welcome to the first episode of a series where we will introduce you to different mental health disorders apparent in young people. In today's episode, Guy Beetham will talk about his battle with depression, anxiety and borderline personality disorder.
These are real people, real stories, and real feelings. Please be kind.
About the organisation: The Invisible Pandemic is a mental health awareness organisation based in Cambridge, UK. We intend to provide utmost help to those in need by introducing our audience to the parts of mental illness that are often avoided in conversation. Acknowledging these topics encourages the ones in need to speak up and seek help. Our platform offers mental health sufferers to come forward and tell their stories publically in hopes of educating people around sensitive topics. The stories oftentime involve conversations around domestic abuse, sexual abuse, suicide attempts, illegal substance use etc.

Thank you for sharing your experience Guy. Separating the things that are attached to us is important, but - like you said - can be very difficult. It's important to remember that we are not our illnesses or our symptoms. Wishing you the best Guy
Thank you for your kind words @Elicia J. ! Sending love.
