"We met and fell in love at a mental health unit"

Available for over a year

For most people, a mental health unit is the last place they’d expect to find love. But Hannah and Sean’s love story began at The Cassel Hospital in London. They met while being treated for borderline personality disorder. The couple tell us about supporting each other in married life, how the hospital worked with them on their relationship as part of their treatment and how they've learned they cannot fix each other. The conversation touches on the difficult subject of suicide. We meet Saihan, 22, and Charlie, 19, who, like many young disabled people, feel they are often under-estimated, especially when it comes to school and work. The charity Sense recently surveyed 1,000 disabled people aged 18-24 and found two-thirds felt under-estimated in education settings which often continued into employment, and also led to them lowering their own aspirations - sometimes called internalised ableism. Dr Kirstie Liddiard helps us to understand why this is happening and also gives some top tips on how disabled people often have far more skills up their sleeves than they believe. Think advocacy and care team management. If you know your worth, want ideas and are feeling fierce, this is a good programme to listen to.
