Welcome to episode 151 with Kim Davies!
My wife Kim and I originally recorded and released this episode in April 2021.
At that time, we were both quite nervous about putting our story out there so I just slipped it out as a bonus with very little promotion. It had such a wonderful response and is still one of the episodes that I get the most feedback from.
I can’t tell my story without Kim telling hers so I wanted to give it a proper release alongside episode 150 which is also out today and is me being interviewed on the Full of Beans podcast.
At that time Proper Mental was only a few episodes in and I was still very much learning on the job.
We put the kids to bed, set a mic on the table, put the kettle on and just had a chat in the kitchen.
It’s scruffy and loose and really quite beautiful to listen back to it now.
A lot came out in the conversation that neither of us were expecting and it was moving for me to get Kim’s side of the story.
We actually tried to do a follow up but it didn’t work and it just felt like there was nothing left to say.
This episode says it all.
Depression can be all consuming and as much as the person struggling feels like they are drowning, they can also be pulling the people around them under.
This chat is a real insight in to watching someone you love suffer.
We chat about what it’s like to live with someone who is struggling, why it’s important to talk and how Kim navigated the ups and downs of my mental health.
We also chat about how my problems brought us closer together and by nearly ruining our marriage, actually made it stronger.
You can support Proper Mental by signing up to the Patreon community! It’s £5 a month for early access to episodes as soon as the recording is finished, a monthly Zoom hangout and loads of other behind the scenes updates.
