🎙️ Welcome to Mental Health Rewritten — hosted by multi-award-winning podcaster and mental health advocate Dominic Lawson.

In a world flooded with conversations about mental health, not all information is helpful — and some can even cause harm. The most important battles often begin in silence, hidden by stigma and shame. But it's time for that to change.

Mental Health Rewritten is a bold, narrative-driven podcast where we confront the difficult, the uncomfortable, and the necessary. Each season follows a 3-Track, 12-Episode format, taking listeners on an emotional and educational journey across intersecting topics:

🔸 Track 1: Sex
From desire to dysfunction, we explore how behavior, identity, and wellbeing collide — and what happens when they spiral out of control.

🔸 Track 2: Suicide
Breaking the silence on one of the greatest mental health crises of our time, we dive into despair, survival, and pathways toward hope.

🔸 Track 3: Race
How does racial trauma and cultural identity shape our mental health? We uncover the scars — and the resilience — behind healing.

Rooted in clinical insights from the DSM-5 and ICD-11, and guided by authentic, lived experiences, Mental Health Rewritten is more than a podcast — it's a movement to rewrite the way we understand mental wellness.

🎧 Season 1 premieres May 14, 2025.

The structure of each season is deliberate, building understanding episode by episode rather than offering scattered advice. What you'll hear is a host who listens as much as he guides, facilitating discussions that rewrite the old, stigmatized narratives surrounding mental and behavioral health.
