Ollie West is an incredibly talented singer-songwriter, as well as being an avid appreciator of classical music. We speak about his experience with anxiety surrounding traditional music education and about the differences between studying within popular music and classical music.

Ollie shares his experiences with anxiety, depression and binge eating disorder. During the pandemic, Ollie's mental health reached crisis point as he began to deal with panic attacks and suicidal thoughts.

It can feel easy to declare yourself 'unworthy' of the suffering you experience, especially, as Ollie puts it, if you are someone of able-bodied, male and white appearance. Ollie has moved away from this destructive mindset and into one of desire to help others with his story. Ollie's message is universal and is vitally important as a step towards supporting men's mental health. We are so grateful to Ollie and all he is!
