Healing from Mental Illness is possible!!! I know, because I did it. I have fully healed from schizoaffective disorder after a ten-year long battle, and have been medication-free and living a normal life since June of 2013. If you or a loved one is struggling with schizoaffective disorder, schizophrenia, bipolar, depression, anxiety, or any other mental illness, there is hope!!! I am producing this podcast to accompany my new book, Healing Schizoaffective, to share the insights and wisdom that I gained from my experience, to help others who are suffering. Check out my website, healingschizoaffective.com, for more information! (Intro/Outro music: iStock.com/AudioGate)

The American mental health system is broken beyond repair. Rather than trying to tweak a system which fails everyone, it is time to commit to a bold vision for a better way forward. This podcast explores the American system against the plumb line of an international best practice, recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO), in Trieste, Italy. The 40-year old Trieste model demonstrates how a community-based treatment system upholds the human rights of the people served.The Trieste story is anti-institutional and models the therapeutic value of social connection. Topics will address contemporary challenges in the American failed mental health system as contrasted with the Italian approach toward accoglienza – or radical hospitality – as the underpinning of their remarkable culture of caring for people. Interviews will touch upon how the guiding principles of the Italian system – social recovery, whole person care, system accountability, and the human right to a purposeful life – are non-negotiable aspects if we are to have any hope of forging a new way forward in our American mental health system.This podcast is curated and hosted by Kerry Morrison, founder and project director of Heart Forward LA (https://www.heartforwardla.org/). Heart Forward is collaborating with Peer Mental Health as the technical partner in producing this podcast (https://www.peermentalhealth.com/about/). Kerry Morrison is also the author of the blog www.accoglienza.us.

Discovering Our Scars Podcast is all about one thing: honest conversations. Steph and Beth talk about things that make most people uncomfortable (religion, mental illness, sexual abuse, and more). Steph and Beth became friends when they poured their hearts out in a 12-Step recovery small group. Neither was dealing with addiction—but both had hurts, habits, and hang-ups they needed to address. Steph’s journey is detailed in her book, Discovering My Scars, and that’s the inspiration for the podcast. While the podcast is inspired by Steph’s book, the hosts expand on subjects that make each person unique. The mission of the podcast is to help people embrace the “embarrassing” parts of their lives and learn to love and value all of themselves. On the podcast, the hosts share their own experiences and invite guests to broaden the conversation by contributing their own wisdom. As in Steph’s book, the podcast does not “tell you what to do,” rather, it has the ability to inspire people through the hosts’ honest and heartfelt approach.Podcast website: dospod.us

This podcast is about navigating through your twenties. Our twenties are a time of exploration into ourselves and it can often seem difficult or confusing. I made this podcast because I am currently in the midst of my 20’s and let’s be honest does anyone know what the hell they are doing? So I decided why not share with everyone what I have experienced thus far and with the help of friends hopefully we can process this time together.

The goal of the non-profit WIN OVER DEPRESSION organization is to spread awareness about the Mental Health epidemic and provide insight, and understanding about the daily challenges individuals with mental health issues face. It can be hard to get out of bed in the morning or feel motivated to interact with others. Quite often it feels as though a dark cloud is hovering over you. During the most painful times you just feel ALONE. The clinically depressed individual struggles daily to survive.

The mind is the worst enemy they have and they are often trapped inside their thoughts. They make assumptions about their interactions, sometimes become paranoid and have difficulty deciding what is the truth. They feel alone in their pain because they are convinced they are a burden to their family and friends. They have a couple of friends in whom they may confide, but unless you have experienced the deep-rooted sadness and helplessness no one can really understand the day to day and often moment to moment struggle of mental health disorders.

For the most part, sufferers of mental health conditions conceal their mental health diagnosis because society can be cruel and accusatory. The negative stigmas that surround mental illnesses encourage silence and seeking professional help is perceived to be a weakness. “GIVING UP IS NEVER AN OPTION.” This podcast will provide the mental health sufferer or their family with insight, tools for survival and “real-life” stories that will teach techniques and ways to thrive despite your circumstances and life a productive life. websites:https://www.winoverdepression.org
