The One Immune Voice podcast series has been developed and funded by Janssen-Cilag Ltd in partnership with 6 patient organisations.For those living with autoimmune and immune-mediated conditions, mental health and physical health often go hand in hand meaning mental health problems are just as important to treat as physical symptoms. However, although the stigma surrounding mental health and wellbeing has decreased in recent times, many still find it very difficult to discuss it openly which can lead to issues being bottled up and worsening over time.In the first episode of this brand new series Claudia Hammond is joined by Clare Jacklin, Chief Executive Officer of the National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society (NRAS), and Dom Urmston, Patient Advocacy & Communications Manager at The Psoriasis Association . They explore the common issues people face as well as ways in which listeners can improve their mental health and wellbeing including talking to family, friends, and employers. They also share tips on how to approach these sometimes difficult conversations.For further information and support you can visit the patient organisations’ websites/social media pages.www.crohnsandcolitis.org.ukwww.ibdrelief.comwww.lupusuk.org.ukwww.nass.co.ukwww.nras.org.ukwww.psoriasis-association.org.ukIf you find this episode of One Immune Voice useful please don’t forget to subscribe and share.CP-360774: February 2023
