Dr. Marian,
>> thanks so much.
>> Shush, you're glaring at me, but I'm not
being rude because that's the name of
your new book, isn't it?
>> That's right. It's called Shush, Finding
Placid Amid the Noise and the Haste. And
it's really just um an exploration into
our mental health and our well-being.
>> Yes. Because mental health can mean
different things to different people,
can't it? From anxiety disorders right
through to dissociative conditions such
as paranoid schizophrenia.
>> Well, that's a very good way of putting it.
it.
>> Oh, thank you. I got it off the
internet. We should be looking after our
minds in the same way that we look after
our bodies.
>> If you have indigestion, you can pop a
renie. But when it comes to this, you
can't just go to the bathroom cabinet,
take out some mental cream, and rub it
on your head.
>> Well, no, of course. But what we do have
is anti-depressants.
>> Oh, yeah. I've forgotten about those.
Are they any good?
>> Well, they can be. But of course, you do
make a very good point. >> Cheers.
>> Cheers.
>> Which is that up until recently, some of
the language surrounding mental health
and well-being hasn't always been very
helpful. what were once medical terms
are now words you would only ever use uh
to a learner driver. I imbecile lunatic
>> and up until very recently we used to
use the word idiot as a clinical term. I
mean, terrific to think that uh GP could
have called you into his surgery, sat
you down and said, "The results have
come back. They're not what we would
have hoped. There's no easy way of
putting this, but I'm sorry to have to
tell you, you're an idiot."
>> Of course. And that's why the
terminology is so so important. OCD,
ADHD, bipolar, and it is just to to get
rid of that stigma if you like.
>> Absolutely. And not before time. Time
was uh when OCD would be house proud or
fussy. ADHD would have been ants in the
pants. Uh bipolar disorder would have
been moody. Uh when my assistant has her
panic attacks, I think most people would
say uh she's flapping or in a tizz.
Do you mind me saying that you don't blink?
