The week after this social psychology podcast episode goes out, tens of millions of university students throughout the northern hemisphere will go-to university for the first time, or you’ll return for another academic year. This gives them another year to make lifelong friendships filled with laughter, hope and maybe even love. Be it companionate or romantic love. But how do we make and maintain friends as adults? This is a topic I struggle with massively and it is a major factor at the moment in my horrific mental health. Therefore, in this social psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn how to make and maintain friends as an adult, why this is important and four important tips to help you do this. If you enjoy learning about social psychology, friendships and relationships then this is a great episode for you.
In the psychology news section, you'll learn about whether individual uniqueness is going out of style.

One of my favourite topics in psychology actually comes from developmental psychology because I love learning about attachment and attachment styles. Since our attachment styles are critical to our mental health, the relationships we form and attachment impacts so many aspects of our lives. Therefore, some people need therapy to help readjust their attachment styles and help them so they can have healthier relationships and improve their lives. That’s why in this clinical psychology podcast episode, we’re going to be looking at what is attachment based therapy, how does it work, when is it used and more. If you enjoy learning about developmental psychology, mental health and attachment then this will be a brilliant episode for you.
In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how we can train the brain to be better at echolocation, how mindless scrolling actually increases boredom, and why a "thank you" really does go a long way.

I'm sorry everyone but unfortunately yesterday (8th September) my mental health collapsed so badly that I was unable to edit, upload and release today's podcast episode. I will try and edit as soon as possible but that really depends on my mental health. It absolutely has to be done before Thursday 12th September but it will be later than normal.
Again, I am really sorry and thank you for being patient whilst I continue to deal with the horrific mental health impact of my sexual assault.

As aspiring and qualified psychologists and people interested in psychology, we read, listen and learn a lot of content about different mental health conditions. Yet as great as academic content is for helping us understanding a mental health condition, depression and anxiety, it is only lived experience that can possibly help us to truly understand what a condition is like for a client or service user. You can read as many academic papers on depression as you want but until you talk or listen to people who have or are currently experiencing depression then you will never be able to fully understand how depression impacts a person. Especially in their everyday life. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, I’ll be talking about my experience of a major depressive episode, which is still on-going as I finish off this blog post. You’ll learn about how it’s impacting me, what triggered my depression, the challenges depression gives me and more. If you enjoy learning about mental health, lived experience and depression then this is going to be a great episode for you.

Therefore, this podcast episode merges clinical psychology and biological psychology so you can learn how trauma affects the heart, why trauma has physical impacts on our body and what can we do about these impacts.
