One man’s journey to good mental health through a very bad idea…

Lost in depression and suicidal thoughts, instead of seeing a psychiatrist, Matt booked himself into the greatest arts festival on the planet, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Warm and compassionate stories explore exploring mental health, this is the path one man took from breakdown to talking publicly about his feelings.

Moderate success never felt so euphoric.

From Liverpool and Antony Gormley’s Naked torso to a nightly and very public counselling session, there’s no such thing as a straight line on the road to wellbeing.

Sometimes asking for help is hard, yet somehow turning mental health into a live music show, album, podcast, and now a book was much easier!
