Psychiatric Hospital to Author: Strength in Accepting Mental Illness - Author Leif Gregersen s3e20
Manage episode 428892884 series 3001593
This week I am joined by the talented Author Leif Gregersen who supports and educates others about mental illness. Leif has a fascinating story and he joins me today for a very candid and honest discussion about his life as he uses his own experiences having been in psychiatric hospitals and diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder, bipolar disorder and anxiety, to help others to understand what they might be going through, how and when to seek help, how medication can help, and how to manage your daily life. Leif also explains that mental illness is not a death sentence, you can get help and many people learn to manage and lead active lives. Leif has done extensive research into his diagnosis and mental health, and we are very privileged to have him on the show today to share his experiences. Leif is published in the British Journal of Psychiatry, see links below. Be sure to go his website, and check out his books which are a fantastic read. Leif actively supports the Schizophrenia Society of Alberta Canada.
