Poverty is a key indicator for one’s mental health. In a low-income situation, it can be difficult to achieve and maintain your mental well-being. This could be due to a lack of access to mental health resources and the stress of poverty itself. Poor mental health then impacts your ability to fully participate in society, which again, impacts your ability to stay out of poverty. It's a vicious cycle where higher levels of poverty lead to lower levels of mental health, which then lead to even higher levels of poverty. This episode, we speak to David Chowne, Elsie Lobo, and Eric Krepstekies to explore the complexities of managing your mental health while living in poverty.
Today’s episode was hosted by Tokunbo Adegbuyi. Thank you to Rebecca Price for interviewing our guests.
