TW: Talks about suicide.I sometimes pinch myself with the guests we get on Bottled Up and this week is no exception.Only 1% of those who attempt suicide by jumping off of the Golden Gate Bridge survive, and Kevin Hines is one of those people. Fuelled by a history of struggle with depression and bi-polar disorder, Kevin thought the bridge would be the easiest way to die, yet the first thing he felt after clearing the railing was - regret. Hines fell about 240 feet in just four seconds. He crashed feet first into the waters below, crushing spinal vertebrae and breaking an ankle. But he survived.Today, Kevin is a world renowned speaker, best selling author, and mental health advocate who uses his powerful personal story to save lives. He talks openly about what it feels like to live with "brain pain," the extraordinary circumstances around his survival after the jump, his experience in psych wards, the common denominator of people who consider suicide, and how the simple act of showing kindness to someone in emotional pain can save their life.Kevins story embodies hope though, and the key message of reaching out for help which he shares with millions of people around the globe.Join Sunny Bahuguna for Episode 75 as Kevin shares his story.______________LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthieukomorowski/______________There are some sensitive topics we touch on regarding mental health so if there are any triggers for you please know there is support and there will be plenty of links in access below.LifeLine (Australia) - Ph: 13 11 14 https://www.lifeline.org.au/Banksia Project - https://thebanksiaproject.org.au/Mr. Perfect - https://mrperfect.org.au/NHS (UK) - Urgent mental health support https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/mental-health/find-an-urgent-mental-health-helpline______________As always, Bottled Up is a passion project to help provide a voice to those many men who are going through the peaks and troughs of life.

TW: Talks about suicide.The December and January break is often seen as a time of joy and celebration, but for some, it can be a lonely and challenging place.In Episode 74, we delve into the raw and courageous story of James Tyreman, who opens up about his struggles during the early days of the COVID lockdown in 2020.When the pandemic struck, James found himself isolated for the first three months of lockdown, separated from his partner and three daughters. Alone in a small house down south in the UK, many things had slowly bubbled up to the point where he reached a breaking point and attempted to take his own life in March 2020.He has since been on the journey of recovery. There have been some bad days and some good days. The power of a single conversation can change someone's day from bad to manageable.The video below captures James in November 2023, at his worst. Does it make him look weak? Absolutely not. He shares this courageously with the hope that it will go some way to normalising that men cry too, and it's okay to talk about it, and to encourage others feeling similar to do the same.Thankfully, someone there to talk to give him a hug and be there.This post is a reminder to be kind, to check in on your colleagues, to not forget there is a person behind the screen, and to make time for each other. Let's break the silence surrounding mental health and encourage open conversations.Join Sunny Bahuguna for Episode 74 as James shares his story.______________LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthieukomorowski/______________There are some sensitive topics we touch on regarding mental health so if there are any triggers for you please know there is support and there will be plenty of links in access below.LifeLine (Australia) - Ph: 13 11 14 https://www.lifeline.org.au/Banksia Project - https://thebanksiaproject.org.au/Mr. Perfect - https://mrperfect.org.au/NHS (UK) - Urgent mental health support https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/mental-health/find-an-urgent-mental-health-helpline______________As always, Bottled Up is a passion project to help provide a voice to those many men who are going through the peaks and troughs of life.

Our youth is subjected to not only in school bullying, but now the bullies can get them where it hurts, online. This is the story of Adriana and Mallory, only 14 and 12 years old when they decided to end their lives. These young girls gained national attention and shook many of us to our core. What you will hear is heartbreaking, but it is so important to note that this could have been prevented.

I am an upbeat person, constantly making jokes, and I will return to that in future episodes....but I felt it was vital to show this other very real side of me. I didn't wake up one day to success at my bedside, it was f*cking hard. It still is. This podcast is a journey for not only me, but for us to find our own paths + journeys. In much of my journey so far I felt so alone, and I don't want people to feel that feeling anymore. I am not a perfect human, and I will never claim to be. But... one day.. I will be proud of myself.
