In this podcast we reflect on the difference between recovery and resilience, the latter being a more tangible target. The topic includes aspects of trauma and the impact on emotional well-being including suicidal thoughts and also on physical well-ness. The masks that many victim/survivors wear can create barriers to receiving help, not least because resilience as a presentation can be misleading. If you are in a dark place emotionally and not sure that you can continue please contact either the Samaritans and/or your GP. You are not alone.
