Storytime - Bringing the burden of depression home to The Vale

WARNING:  THIS EPISODE CONTAINS CONVERSATIONS ABOUT SUICIDE ATTEMPTS,  DEPRESSION & BI POLAR DISORDER.  It also contains some mild curse words.  We wouldn't recommend it for children. We've spoken to a celebrity,  we've spoken to a guy paddling the Murray to start conversations,  but the best conversations start at home,  so let's talk to a couple of hometown heroes, and I do mean heroes. They are.  To sit in the cafe and bare their souls in front of a microphone for the entire community in which they live,  not to mention the world,  in the hope of saving someone else,  is heroic. Luke & Tom, along with Tom's partner Jussy all sit down at Loft 13 for a raw, candid and brutally honest discussion about the dark depths of depression, attempting suicide twice, bi-polar and the people that care for those fighting these battles. If any of these things are triggering for you,  please contact your GP,  Lifeline on 13 11 14,  Beyond Blue, Headspace or any of the resources in your area.
