Welcome to episode 155 with Sammy Trotman, who is the writer and creator of ‘That’s Not My Name’ a show about mental illness, labels and trauma.
Sammy started writing the show while she was in a psychiatric hospital and the reasons why she ended up in hospital are what the show is based around.
In this episode I chat to Sammy about writing the show and about open up conversations through performance, stories and humour.
We talk about the impact that society has on mental welling being and just trying to be a good person, getting by in life can be so difficult in a world that doesn’t necessarily value those qualities.
We talk about Borderline Personality Disorder, rejecting labels, being creative and rebelling against social norms.
This is a wonderful chat and I loved hanging out with Sammy. We could have talked all day and we really explored a lot of different aspects of mental illness. It was great to talk freely and dig in to these things with the nuance and compassion that they deserve.
