140. Ad Vingerhoets. The Psychology of Crying

Can institutional culture challenge your mental health? What if your job makes you feel shame, sadness, grief, disgust and fear? What if you are expected not to feel? Or you are expected to be relentlessly competitive?  What it’s like to live or work in a prison? Does working with people who commit murder, child abuse and rape affect people who work in prisons and the wider criminal justice system?  

How do people survive and thrive when facing significant challenges to our emotional health over a lengthy period?  How do we protect ourselves and stay compassionate, loving and trusting? Importantly, how do we find and preserve hope?  

Fyodor Dostoevsky wrote that “The degree of civilisation in a society can be judged by entering its prisons”.  In this weekly podcast ,your hosts, David Jones (Forensic psychotherapist) and Dr Naomi Murphy (Consultant Clinical & Forensic Psychologist) hope that exploring less visible aspects of prisons will help listeners see that prisons are a window into society and let us see people not only at their worst but also at their best.  We feature a rich range of guests sharing snap shots of life in prisons and take a look at hospitals, schools, sport and the police in order to learn from other institutions.  We learn about challenges to human integrity and hear important lessons and heart-warming stories about survival and growth when facing adversity in harsh places.  We hope that sharing our conversations can help you make changes to your own relationship with institutions that might challenge your emotional health and well-being.  

Follow and connect with us and give us feedback.  Let us know what you think works, and also what doesn’t.  We want you to look forward to the podcast each week.  We’ll also be extremely grateful for any reviews that you give us. A simple star or two or a thumbs up will do.
