Chris Jaeger talks with his cousin Jess about miscarriage. She tells her heartbreaking story of pregnancy loss. Miscarriage can inflict profound emotional wounds, often leading to a complex array of mental health challenges. Grief, guilt, and deep sadness may engulf individuals and couples, triggering feelings of inadequacy and despair. Anxiety and depression can emerge, lingering long after the physical pain subsides. The loss of a hoped-for future can leave a deep sense of emptiness and longing. Yet, amidst the darkness, there's resilience. Seeking support, whether through therapy, community, or loved ones, can foster healing. Acknowledging the validity of one's grief and allowing space for emotional expression are crucial steps towards navigating the arduous path to recovery.

Leon Fernandes has a conversation which 'changed his life'. His guest Greg, has wisdom in bucket-loads. They discuss the difficulties of coming-out as a gay man, in decades past, and run-ins with suicide. Coming out as a gay man was often a journey marked by profound trauma and societal rejection. The weight of societal stigma and fear of persecution hung heavily over individuals who dared to be true to themselves. Many faced isolation from family and friends, discrimination in workplaces, and even violence. The courage it took to embrace one's identity in a hostile world cannot be overstated. Yet, despite the adversity, these individuals paved the way for progress, resilience, and the gradual transformation of societal attitudes towards LGBTQ+ rights and acceptance.

After 10 years in the mental health sector supporting patients, and being a patient himself, Max Simensen believes there is a better way to approach treatment. Max speaks up against emotional suppression and discusses how people with mental health issues find a need to perform 'unwellness’ in order to access the treatment they need. Over the last two years, Max has led NSW’s first operational SafeHaven - a drop-in service, offering an alternative to Emergency Departments for people in suicidal distress.

An artist, writer and poet, Awad talks with Chris Jaeger about mental health consequences of marginalisation, advocating for acceptance, and creating a safe place where young Muslims can access culturally sensitive support.

Executive Producer of IAMF, Leon Fernandes has faced deep trauma because of failings in mental health care. While awaiting a psychiatric hospital bed, Leon spent 12 terrifying nights in an open ward shared with people experiencing drug-induced psychosis. In this episode Leon speaks candidly about his fears and suicidal thoughts. With presenter Chris Jaeger, he discusses failures of a system that is too often beset by ill-considered patient communication and inadequate funding. As recipients of care, and as mental health peer support workers, Leon and Chris offer their unique perspectives from both sides of the fence. Leon’s motivation to bare his soul in a raw and challenging account of lived-experience is, he says, driven by a need to give voice to those who are silenced by fear, or lack the capacity to speak up for themselves. In Dr Sophie Isobel, Leon finds a like-minded advocate. A clinician and researcher, Dr Isobel looks into the shadows of mental health services, documenting harm that occurs in the course of psychiatric hospitalisation. She speaks with Leon about her findings and how the knowledge of iatrogenic harm can be applied to improve patient outcomes. While the episode reveals flaws in the system, Leon and Chris are at pains to emphasise the exemplary care offered by compassionate health care workers and praise facilities that attain high standards while functioning under difficult financial constraints.

In this episode, we hear the stories of two people whose loved ones have died by suicide. It’s heavy stuff, involving big emotions. As presenter Leon Fernandes says in the interview, “ There are places where words can’t reach and that darkness [of suicide] is absolutely one of them.” Jane talks about the loss of husband Jez, and how she continues to struggle to make sense of his suicide, with gusty honesty and deep compassion. Gab’s experience happened at just 14 when her beloved brother took his life. Many years later, Gab would lose a second family member to suicide when her father chose to end his life.

A deeply spiritual character, Ruah recently departed this life after suffering a short illness. This episode is dedicated with love, to Ruah, her partner, family, and friends.

Ruah characterised her voices as ‘glorious intruders’ and explained their spiritual, cultural, and familial significance. An Indigenous Māori, Ruah was connected by blood to the tribes of Ngati Awa, Te Arawa and Ngapuhi. A proud member of the rainbow community, Ruah described herself as, “..queer, transfemme, pan/demi romantic, relationship anarchist, writer, artist, musician and one of the mystical and beloved children of The Great Mother/The Divine Feminine.” If you'd like some further support or information about hearing voices, there are a number of organisations and resources available to you.

How comfortable are you in talking about sex and suicide? No matter what, we each have a close relationship with and strong opinions about sex and suicide. Talking candidly about them can be difficult – with each they can fill us with unease, bring up distressing memories, force us to sit with uncertainty and with fear. * This episode has a significant focus on suicide. If you need to talk to someone, please visit the Mindframe website where you will find a list of contacts. Guests: On the final episode for season one, we chat with Stella Anna Sonnenbaum MPH CSSE, a Somatic Sexologist and Certified Somatic Sex Educator with a busy practice in Central London, UK, and on Zoom. Originally a licensed pharmacist from Berlin, she initially took up Tantra training over 15 years ago when seeking help and advice about how to create more intimacy in the sexless relationship she was in. She founded her company, Stella with Love, in 2014, with the aim of helping couples and individuals to find more intimacy with each other, and added her certifications in 2015 and 2016 to gain professional expertise in helping clients address and overcome sexual issues, in person, and online. She feels she has found her love and vocation, and gives workshops, lectures and presentations in order to make this very effective body-based approach better known, and to enable people to find more love and pleasure in their lives and relationships. Following Stella’s interview, Caz speaks sex with Club Mind participants, Steffi and Dave about all things intimacy and sex. Lastly, we hear the first episode of Leon’s new podcast, The Suicide Chronicles. IAMF! is supported by the Mental Health Commission of NSW .

For most of human history, mental illness has been largely untreatable. Sufferers lived their lives - if they survived - in and out of asylums, accumulating life's wreckage around them. In 1948, all that changed when an Australian doctor and recently returned prisoner of war, working alone in a disused kitchen, set about an experimental treatment for one of the scourges of mankind - manic depression, or bipolar disorder. That doctor was John Cade and in that small kitchen he stirred up a miracle. John Cade discovered a treatment that has become the gold standard for bipolar disorder - lithium. It has stopped more people from committing suicide than a thousand help lines. Lithium is the penicillin story of mental health - the first effective medication discovered for the treatment of a mental illness - and it is, without doubt, Australia's greatest mental health story. Guests: Associate Professor Hans Pols is an expert in the history, sociology, and anthropology of medicine. He currently focuses on the history of colonial and postcolonial medicine in Southeast Asia. He has also published on the history of the American mental hygiene movement, the treatment of war neurosis in the armed forces of during World War II, and the history of colonial psychiatry. Hans has been investigating the history of medicine in the Dutch East Indies and Indonesia for several years as part of his research within the School of History and Philosophy of Science . He has a special interest in the history of psychiatry that dates back to his childhood. Greg de Moore is an Associate Professor of Psychiatry based at Sydney’s Westmead Hospital. Greg works as a clinician, teacher and researcher in the fields of neuropsychiatry, general hospital psychiatry, deliberate self-harm and the history of medicine. As a recent Director of Psychiatry Training he oversaw the psychiatric education of young doctors as they worked towards becoming psychiatrists. He is affiliated with Western Sydney University and the University of Sydney. IAMF! is supported by the Mental Health Commission of NSW .
