In this episode Edwina talks to artist, mental health activist and all round extraordinary and brilliant being, Dolly Sen. Dolly talks to Edwina about her childhood, her experience of psychosis, mood disorder and PTSD, and how the multiple diagnoses affected her ability to live a normal life. She also talks about how she has survived - and befriended - the voices in her head.
