'Sensitively and seriously exploring mental health stereotypes' Stylist

This is NOT a book of rules or statistics.

It will NOT tell you what you can and can't say to someone with a mental health problem – or to anyone for that matter.

It WILL increase your understanding and empower you to stop stigma in its tracks.

Take a deep-dive into some of the most harmful mental health stereotypes with mental health advocate and author Lucy Nichol.

Lucy exposes 10 of the most harmful mental health stereotypes and explores the impact of social media, the power of the press and how mental health is represented in popular culture.

With the help of experts and the voices of those affected by these harmful perspectives, Lucy makes a case for how we can dismantle stigma once and for all.

Foreword by Sue Baker OBE. Contributors include: Natasha Devon MBE, Jonny Benjamin MBE, Hope Virgo, Cara Lisette and Dr Craig Malkin.

Lucy is a writer with a passion for mental health awareness, music, comedy and nostalgia. She's written extensively in the media, her words appearing in the Independent, the i Paper, NME, Red Magazine, Metro, Den of Geek, Huff Post and many more. She is also a former columnist with Sarah Millican's Standard Issue magazine. She is passionate about challenging mental health stigma – particularly addiction stigma – and has worked with a wide range of mental health charities including: Recovery Connections, Mind, Time to Change, Student Minds, Action on Postpartum Psychosis, Road to Recovery Trust, St Andrew's Healthcare and Newcastle United Foundation. She is, unfortunately, a bit of an expert when it comes to living with anxiety, and speaks openly about growing up with panic attacks and health anxiety. Lucy has also worked on behalf of Mind and Recovery Connections providing script advice for TV soaps and dramas regarding mental health (including addiction) portrayals. Lucy has also written two novels about mental health: The Twenty Seven Club and Parklife.
