Trigger warning: discussions of suicidal ideation/attempts.
Matthew Dickson biked across Canada - and proceeded to live with schizophrenia for 27 years before recovering from it. Matthew breaks stigma as he shares his personal experience living with the disease through early- to mid-adulthood, as well as the tools that helped him heal. Matthew also shares about his website, MindAid, which combines the resources of 10 different nonprofits that are using low-cost, proven effective, and scalable mental healthcare models for those in developing countries. This website is the first of its kind, as it simplifies multiple different tabs into just one, making these crucial sources more accessible to those in need of help.
Please check out MindAid to learn more or donate, where you can also find the links to follow all of Matthew's social media pages. All the books mentioned in this episode can be found here.
You can contact Matthew at info@mindaid.ca or pickmatthewsbrain.com.
