Description
On this week’s episode, I sit down with Gillian and Barry. This episode could’ve been done one on one but I wanted to speak to them as a couple, it also could’ve been done in many parts as we didn’t get to talk about everything this couple has been through. Barry from Belfast met Gillian on a night out and their journey took them from Belfast to Dublin, onto Australia, and back Belfast and Dublin again as they try to escape the hold depression had on Barry. Working on the sites led to an injury that started Barry on a rollercoaster true depression blackhole episodes and suicidal thoughts. Barry’s last hope was a Psilocybin in a clinical trial but his mum passed away and Barry was too sick to attend. A chance Facebook invite to a retreat save Barry’s life forever. The love between these two is palpable they have been through the wringer and out the other side if I ever struggle it’s These to you would want in my corner.
