Gain a unique emotional and personal insight into living with a significant mental health disorder, with Psychologist, mental health advocate, and public speaker Jeremiah Osei-Tutu.    Recorded 1st April 2020 - We are within a deep and profound crisis - the Coronavirus global pandemic. Modern life has stopped, as we know it. We’re adapting to a very different way of living.    Emotions are high. It’s an incredibly testing time psychologically. We need tools, perspectives and emotional guidance on how to navigate the darkness of this crisis - to protect our mental and physical wellbeing.   For some, this time could be particularly vulnerable and scary. To help see this situation through the eyes of those with mental health disorders, Jeremiah Osei-Tutu offers his unique perspective as sufferer of Schizophrenia and a Psychologist.   This episode lets you in to the dark reality of serious mental health issues. You may relate to some degree to the emotional struggles of life. Most importantly, it exposes the powerful mechanisms to not only cope, but to also robustly thrive in spite of mental disorders.    The interview naturally takes on two halves. Firstly, Jeremiah bravely lets us into his world and shares his debilitating mental health journey. The second half switches to the COVID-19 Pandemic, covering the looming mental health issues and ways to combat those real risks.   Check out the Full Show Notes of What’s Discussed -  https://adapnation.io/126-pandemic-mental-health/   The #BeYourBest Journey : https://adapnation.io/beyourbest-journey/ (£10 coupon BESTYEAR-2020)    Where to find JEREMIAH and his work: ▪︎ TEDx Talk - Jeremiah’s The Protagonist and the Script  ▪︎ Instagram - @jeremiah1985ad  ▪︎ Facebook - Jeremiah Osei-Tutu    Third Party References:  ▪︎ The Samaritans - If you’re struggling and need someone to talk privately and free  ▪︎ The Maytree - a London sanctuary that support those with suicidal thoughts      ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you like this and other AdapNation episodes, please don't forget to subscribe to the channel, as well as leaving a 5 star review and letting friends and family know of this Podcast on Social Media.   AdapNation Useful Links: The #BeYourBest Self-Optimisation Journey  ■ Social - Instagram & Facebook & Tons of Free Website Content  ■ #HyperWorkouts - Expertly written Gym Workout Plans, with video guides, print-outs & HeavySet import  ■ AdapNation Butler - An Online Personal Assistant that can inspire easy and tasty Home-cooking  ■ AdapNation Food Diary - 100’s of Tasty Healthy Meal Ideas, that are focussed on helping you thrive
