The Paul McGregor Podcast

On the 4th March 2009, my life changed forever. My Dad, the man I looked up too, the man who in my eyes had "everything" on paper took his own life. After it happened I struggled to deal with the grief, I buried the pain and found myself asking the question "why" over and over again. I too then found myself struggling with depression and anxiety. This Podcast is all about documenting not only my own personal journey to discovering more about mental health and suicide, but to also document other

2019/03/14

It's time for change, too many people are suffering in silence. Pledge your support here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/a-documentary-to-expose-the-mental-health-crisisQuite simply, this documentary HAS to be made. Because even though the statistics that surround mental health and suicide are shocking, still little action is being made to prevent people losing their lives to this 'silent' killer.- Suicide is the biggest killer of young people.- Suicide is the biggest killer of men under the age

Super excited to announce this new series, kicking it off with an interview with Instagram influencer Darren Branch.Behind The 'Reel' is all about interviewing 'influencers', and getting to know more about them behind what they share on social media.

My Dad Could Still Be Alive...

The Paul McGregor Podcast ·

2019/01/21

So for this episode I grabbed the microphone and shared what's on my mind right now. A thought that's been pulling me down..."My Dad could still be alive knowing what I know now".It's led to a mixture of emotions, I feel proud because of how far I've come and everything I've discovered but I also feel guilty and sad that my Dad could still be alive. With it approaching 10 years since his suicide as well it makes it difficult for me to picture how my life would be if he was still alive.It leads into

2019. The Year of Prevention

The Paul McGregor Podcast ·

2019/01/07

HAPPY NEW YEAR!I've spent the last two weeks really disconnected. I've rarely updated this Podcast, social media, and also disconnected from my phone altogether recently on a family trip to Tenerife. Honestly, that disconnect has been so refreshing and something I needed.In this episode, I look back on 2018 and explain why 2019 needs to be the year for prevention. It needs to be the year of change to help with this current mental health crisis. There was a huge amount of talk and and awareness in

The Mental Health Unit Failed My Dad...

The Paul McGregor Podcast ·

2018/12/21

Here's an interview I gave back in November for Maytree. I'm hoping this interview offers some value to you in two ways, through my honesty in the interview but also as an introduction into the amazing work that the Maytree do.Since giving this interview I reflected on how my Dad would've probably benefited from something like the Maytree, rather than being sectioned and spending time in a mental health unit on the NHS. If I'm honest, and this isn't true for every unit, the environment within these

"Grief With The Volume Turned Up" - Dealing With Suicide

The Paul McGregor Podcast ·

2018/12/17

Someone once explained suicide grief as "grief with the volume turned up". It really struck a cord with me, as I really did struggle to accept my Dad's suicide.Grief is hard, knowing that someone you love has gone can lead to a rollercoaster of emotions. As a British society too, we also struggle to talk about grief and people who've died. But suicide? It's almost like we have to be silent about the loss, but also silent about how it happened.I've been open and honest in the past about how I lied

2018/12/12

So this was slightly different! I drove to Cardiff to visit fellow mental health campaigner Anneli Roberts of Pigletish.com a few weeks back and we recorded the conversation we had.We sat down on the sofa, hit record on the camera and spoke as openly and honestly as we could about mental health. From losing our parents at a similar age, to how we dealt with the grief, to coping mechanisms and what helps us day to day... this episode really is an honest one.It's funny, even though we were talking

How To NATURALLY Deal With Mental Health Issues...

The Paul McGregor Podcast ·

2018/12/03

So this is one from the archives on my old Podcast, but I think this could offer huge value to you.I spoke to Dr Phil Carson about natural ways to deal with mental health issues. Why? Because Dr Phil was someone who was a trained doctor who practiced medicine who then transitioned into more natural remedies and saw some amazing results.This episode needs an open ear and an open mind, we're very conditioned to believe the medication is the only way to getting better sometimes. But in this episode we

What Would I Say To My Dad?

2018/11/27

So if I could spend one more hour with my Dad, would what I say to him?This was a question I was asked in a recent interview with Alex Manzi from the Dreamers Disease Podcast and it really got me thinking. To be honest with you, I really wouldn't know what I would say or do.A few weeks ago I published a clip from this interview but I wanted to share the whole interview. I've given a lot of interviews recently but Alex asked some questions that made me dig deeper and share things I've never really

Mental health awareness and social media marketing.In fact, it came at a time when I've been really thinking about the impact of sharing your story on social media. Over the past 6 months I've had countless messages saying that my videos and posts

Depression Has No Face... (I Know, I've Been There)

The Paul McGregor Podcast ·

2018/11/15

In this episode I share a personal story about how wearing a mask kept my emotions hidden from those around me. I also share about how this mask was the same one my Dad wore, just before he took his own life.This is a personal, quick, but super important episode. And I'm hoping that this shows others that they no longer need to wear a mask too.Depression simply has no face. No matter how we perceive someone through how they act or what they say, we never truly know what they’re going through.To all

A few weeks ago I went in to the BBC studios to talk about the mental health crisis surrounding young people right now.This is something I'm hugely passionate, now as a Dad, I realise just how important it is to focus on the next generation when it comes to mental health. And hearing stories from people daily about how they've lost their children to suicide scares me...In it, I focus on the need for education. Mental health education within schools.I also talk about intervening earlier, for

Naturally known for his football videos, this conversation was completely different to what James was used to doing but he wanted to find out more about my Dad and how I dealt with his suicide too.I've given a lot of interviews like this recently, but what struck me with this one is how natural the conversation flew.
