The Whistleblower Live Podcast With Davin Godfrey

Where is My Mind? has been on a tour of Ireland over the last number of weeks and we promised we'd bring you some of our most moving conversations from the road. 

We have spoken many times about the harrowing Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) report that came out earlier this year and how detrimental some of the treatment has been to children and young people. When Niall took the podcast to a stage in Listowel, Co. Kerry he knew he wanted to speak to local man Davin Godfrey, who has been one of the young people gravely affected by the services, having been put on six different types of medication at once despite no formal diagnosis. Davin is a wonderful young man and tells the story of how this impacted his life, the reason behind him waiving his anonymity and why we can't let this happen to any child or person ever again. 

This episode touches on some difficult subjects, take care when listening.
