About this listen
This playlist contains my psychosis interviews, where I speak to different people about their experiences of psychosis, schizophrenia, and related mental health difficulties in their own words.In this series, I ask each guest the same set of open questions and try not to interrupt or challenge their answers. The aim is not to decide who is right or wrong, and not to promote any single theory of psychosis, but to create space for people to describe how they understand their own experiences.Topics that come up in these interviews often include:* First episodes of psychosis* What psychosis means to different people* Recovery, relapse, and long-term change* Medication, therapy, and mental health services* Meaning, creativity, and unusual experiences* Stigma, diagnosis, and identity* Different ways of making sense of mental illnessPeople in this playlist do not always agree with each other, and they do not always agree with me. That is intentional. The goal of the series is to show how varied these experiences and interpretations can be, rather than to present a single correct explanation.These interviews are not clinical assessments and not medical advice. They are conversations about lived experience, personal beliefs, and individual ways of understanding psychosis.
