Today I've got another video for you as part of my mental health series where I talk about my experiences of being sectioned and admitted to a psychiatric hospital. It was obviously a very difficult time and there may be some triggering content in this video, so please do be careful if you are currently in a very bad place.

But I wanted to talk about this because I feel like it's important to be open about mental illness and the things associated with us, in the hope we can break the stigma and misunderstandings around it. Plus, I know when I was sectioned, I had never heard about it before and hadn't spoken to anyone about what it involved. So I hope this might help people who have been sectioned themselves or are looking at the prospect of being sectioned. But also I hope it helps to raise awareness more generally so people don't feel scared of mental health problems and can talk about mental illness openly.

If, after watching this, you have any questions or comments, please do let me know. And if there are any other videos you would like to see me make - either about sectioning, mental illness or anything else, please do tell me, as it really helps to know what sorts of things you would like to see.
