David Woodhead: 'The personal is historical' - mental health & LGBT+ history

David Woodhead: 'The personal is historical' - mental health & LGBT+ history

Thea Joshi sits down with David Woodhead, our Associate Director of Research, to hear about what LGBT+ History Month means to him. He shared how his experiences as a gay man have affected his mental health, for good and ill, and about his journey from addiction to recovery. It was a really moving conversation, and it exemplified the way that lived experience, albeit painful, brings a depth and a richness to our fight for better mental health.
