1: Andy Elwood: Dope On A Rope

  • Summary

  • “We’re all human, not robots. I thought mental health problems were something that happened to other people, not me.” Former search and rescue paramedic Andy Elwood talks host Clare Freeman through some of the biggest moments in his life - changing careers, facing divorce upon returning from a gruelling tour in Afghanistan to learning to manage signs of PTSD. In the first of five episodes of The Fuck It Moments’ second series, Andy explains why he quit the day job to take his Land Rover on tour, because he believes as a mental health campaigner he can save more lives talking than ‘dangling from a helicopter’.
