A Mother's Perspective: Jason Paul's Recovery from Psychosis

I really wanted someone to tell me someone else had been through this, and that's fine. So I think it was a very, very lonely place and I think the fact that I hadn't long lived in Bristol as well.
What happens when a mother and son team up to share their journey through the stormy seas of psychosis? In this heartfelt episode, Jason Paul and his mum, Kim, open up about Jason's path from diagnosis to recovery. They paint a vivid picture of the three years under the care of the NHS Early Interventions team, diving into the tough times and small victories along the way.
Jason talks candidly about the adverse reactions to medication that left him battling muscle cramps and suicidal thoughts, unable to leave a dark room. But it’s not all doom and gloom. They also share the turning points when the psychotic thoughts began to fade and hope started to glimmer. This episode is raw and unedited, capturing their truest words and emotions.
By sharing their story, Jason and Kim aim to raise awareness about psychosis and offer a helping hand to those in similar situations. Whether you're dealing with psychosis yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a beacon of understanding and hope.
