Neil - My Mental Health City

Neil shares some of his early experiences and current experiences of living with a disability and his mental health. This film is part of a series of short films where we asked people ‘What could make Sheffield a mental health friendly city?’ to show different perspectives. This was to support the Sheffield Joint Health and Wellbeing Board as part of their in-depth review of mental health and it’s impact on whole health in Sheffield.

Neil tells of his experiences living with a disability and his mental health.

Topics include: how important it is to treat you the way you want to be treated; defeating the nemesis; an outbreak of loneliness and social isolation; people assuming you are stupid if you have a disability; and finding a place to feel well about yourself.

Other short films as part of this same work with the Sheffield Joint Health and Wellbeing Board can also be found on our website:
