Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of depression, suicidal ideation, and mental health struggles.
When your own mind is telling you that you're not good enough, it can be hard to see how far you've come. In this raw and deeply personal episode, Mark explores the hidden battle of mental illness, the importance of purpose, and why sometimes the greatest victory is simply choosing to keep going.
Because even when it doesn't feel like it, you're making progress. And you're still here.

The first victims of the Holocaust were the disabled and the mentally ill.
If I lived in nazi Germany I would have had to wear an inverted black triangle.
If we allow unchecked hatred for one group of people (the Jews) then who is next.
This is not an existential thought problem, it is history.
I stand with Israel.

What happens when a conversation about mental health is met with the words, “Shame on you”?
In this powerful episode, Mark is joined by his wife, Mary, for an honest discussion about mental illness, caregiving, parenting, stigma, and the courage it takes to speak openly. Together, they explore why sharing lived experiences matters, the loneliness so many families face, and how one conversation can become a lifeline for someone struggling in silence.
Because healing starts when shame ends.

What would you do if you woke up tomorrow and the last ten years of your life had simply vanished?
Your family were strangers. Your home was unfamiliar. The country you lived in made no sense. And the last thing you remembered was hiding for your life during a genocide.
That's exactly what happened to one man I worked with in the 1990s.
I thought I was there to help him rebuild his life. Instead, I found myself in the middle of one of the most traumatic incidents of my career, an experience I would spend years pretending was just another funny story from work.

What does shame stop you from doing?
Have you ever felt ashamed of a condition you didn’t choose?
Comment below with your experience — your story may help someone else.
Share this episode with someone who needs to hear they’re not alone.
Shame is powerful, insidious, and often invisible — especially for people living with PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and other mental‑health conditions. In this episode, Mark Brosnan asks a confronting question: Is shame a choice?
Drawing from lived experience, Mark breaks down how shame operates, why it feels overwhelming, and how choosing not to carry it can become one of the most difficult but most transformative decisions of your life.
If your condition is not your fault — illness, injury, trauma, aneurysm, neurological disorder — why carry shame for it? This episode challenges you to recognise your reality, acknowledge your condition, and begin reclaiming your identity from shame.
