Summary
Hello all you Private Parters and welcome back to the podcast where nothing is off limits!
It’s Friday and we’ve got a particularly special episode today. Jamie is joined by someone who knows him very well… it's his therapist, Mal. Jamie has been going to Mal for 5 years and she has a pretty good insight into how Jamie’s brain works.
In this incredibly insightful episode, they openly talk about how Jamie was when he first came to see her and the problems he was facing. They discuss anxiety, depression and OCD as well as the various therapies that are out there.
As well as this, they chat about the stigma around mental health, medication and why it’s important to talk to someone, whether it’s a parent, partner or friend. If you are struggling and need someone to talk to, the Samaritans have lots of resources on their website which you can access here.

| 0:44.4 | I think that's why my anxiety got so bad is because I felt a complete loss of connection. |
| 0:54.4 | Yeah, meaningful connection. You had lots of connections but there were very unhealthy |
