Mental health and acting? Not really spoken about enough is it?
Well, in this feature I wanted to change that, with the help of Emmerdale's Danny Miller.
Not only is Danny an incredible actor - winning the 'Best Actor' gong at The British Soap Awards THREE times... he's also a real advocate for mental health, having suffered with bouts of anxiety and depression for many years.
In this 90 MINUTE deep-dive, we pull the curtain back on what life is really like as a full-time serial drama actor, we look at the 5 most common things that screw up actors' mental health, Danny shares his best strategies to truly master your mindset - and members of Act On This jump on camera for some 1-2-1 coaching too!
During the broadcast, we discuss:
- Danny's background and entry into the acting industry.
- When he first noticed that his mental health might have been suffering.
- Anxiety - and why it's completely normal to feel it.
- Controlling anxiety and looking at it as a positive.
- Danny's first experience with depression.
- Being prescribed anti-depressants and what they did for Danny.
- Asking for help when you need it.
