from Your Dose: Raw, Real Conversations on Mental Health – Stories That Make You Feel Less Alone. · host Emily Southwell

In this episode, we speak with Tom who has overcome some of the the darkest of challenges. From the depths of teenage depression and an attempted suicide at just 16 years old. During his 20's, Tom found a love for Djing around Melbourne, Australia. However, what started as an escape eventually spiralled into years of addiction, culminating in a traumatic drunken car accident in his 20s. This life-altering event left him with a fractured spine and frontal lobe damage, affecting his memory and speech in particular. Join us as we explore his incredible journey of recovery, and how he's using his experiences to help others through his platform, 'The Funny Side of Therapy,' and as an author. Discover how one man turned his darkest moments into a beacon of hope and resilience in the world of mental health and addiction recovery.
