Let's Talk by the University of EdinburghAuthor: University of Edinburgh
When we are struggling with our mental health, often we will feel as if no one else is feeling as we are. It can be a huge relief to discover that you are not alone in these struggles. The Let's Talk podcast is a new series hosted by our Chaplain, Harriet Harris, bringing together different members of the University community to have honest and thought-provoking conversations about a range of mental health topics. These are serious topics with lots of space to grow understanding - and with lots of laughter along the way too!

Let’s Talk: Overcoming mental-health stigma, 10bigideas Scotland
Monday, 26 April, 2021
Overcoming Mental Health Stigma, 10bigideas Scotland: Ailie Ross-Oliver, 3rd year Politics undergraduate, joins Harriet Harris, to talk about her policy research into mental health stigmatisation, as part of the student-led think-tank, the Buchanan Institute, which has just launched its ‘10 Big Ideas for Scotland’. When our mental health deteriorates we can be most concerned to come across as seeming ok, because we fear or experience being stigmatised. Ailie and colleagues propose legislative and educational changes to prevent stigmatisation. For more information on their work, see here: 10 Big Ideas for Scotland website (full report and pledges found here): https://www.10bigideasscotland.com/?fbclid=IwAR1NG3e19aR85cn_yvvHSixZX-cXoSi1a-qsus0apcM4dygmZaQ36qgoorM Buchanan Institute website: https://www.buchananinst.org/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/10bigideas2025 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/10ideasscotland/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/10bigideas2025/
