“From wonderkid to Billy Elliott to a world class academic” - The importance of narrative in understanding and researching the adolescent mental health.

This award-winning presentation starts as a narrative of a young footballer growing up in the late 1980’s-early 1990’s, in the North East of England. It outlines the highs and lows of a footballer that didn’t quite ‘make it’, with reflection on how the effects of isolation, rejection and failure contributed to, and escalated to almost two decades of undiagnosed mental illness.
