Welcome to episode 123 with Yvette Caster, who is an award-winning freelance journalist who regularly writes for some of the most well known media outlets about travel, food, sex and mental health. She has also co-hosted the acclaimed podcast, Mentally Yours, since 2017 and in that time has interviewed some incredible people about all aspects of mental health and mental illness. Yvette has diagnosis of Bi Polar Disorder and Binge Eating Disorder and in this episode we talk about her early experiences with mental illness and everything that came with it. We chat about what it's like to experience a manic episode and the depression that can follow and we chat about the importance of medication, therapy and self-care in living with these things. We also chat about her time in a young person’s mental health unit and growing up with a mental illness and we chat about podcasting, relatability, and the stigma surrounding emotional eating. Yvette was so lovely to chat to!  Her story is moving and emotional and her openness and passion for helping others by telling it is a wonderful thing. You can connect with Yvette on social media @yvettecaster or via her website Yvettecaster.com. Mentally Yours is available wherever you’re listening to this and if you need a place to start you could try my episode from 2021!
