Download Mental Health with Nayena Marsh

Presenter Isy Suttie talks to the inspirational Nayena Marsh about how she’s using her own experiences with mental health to raise awareness through her blog, social media and speaking in schools as a Young Champion for Time to Change.
When Nayena first started suffering from depression and anorexia, she didn’t realise what it was, because she felt she didn’t fit the stereotypical image of mental health portrayed in the mainstream media. When a friend who was suffering with anorexia shared her story with Nayena at a party, Nayena realised she had to do something and went to a doctor for help. As she got better at managing her own mental health, Nayena started to use social media and her online blog to share her experiences, in the hope others would share theirs. This is how Nayena is changing the world… #ChangeYourWorld
