Episode 24 sees me catch up with Jack McGuire, a lad from Banknock, which is a small village within the Falkirk Council area. I first met Jack around a year ago through the 'Max Kolbe Movement' which is a mental health support group which partakes in everything from boot camps to hill walking to cold water therapy.
On my outings with the group, I've found Jack to be a prominent figure who has a presence & self confidence which inspires others. Mentally & physically strong I was intrigued to know more of Jack's story & his journey to date.
We discuss his thoughts & fears as a young boy, his first experience of substance abuse & ultimately his road to a suicide attempt & being admitted to a mental health ward in hospital which is where Jack's road to recovery would begin.
