In this candid episode, mental health campaigner Danny Bowman shares his personal story of developing a selfie addiction at age 14, taking hundreds of photos a day in search of perfection. His struggle with Body Dysmorphic Disorder led to isolation, dropping out of school, and a suicide attempt.
Nowin recovery, Danny speaks openly about the darker side of social media, thepressure to seek online approval, and the urgent need for early mental health intervention. We also explore the work being done at Edge Hill University to support young people’s mental wellbeing, through groundbreaking research, social prescribing, and creative therapies like the £2.5m Arts4Us project.
This is an honest, eye-opening conversation about digital culture, recovery, and why youth mental health must be a national priority.
