Mark is joined by Dr Benji Waterhouse – NHS psychiatrist, comedian and best-selling author – for a special extended interview about mental health.   Benji's book 'You Don't Have To Be Mad To Work Here' is a darkly funny account of life as a front-line NHS doctor specialising in psychiatry. In it, he talks about the patients he has encountered, from the 45 year-old man with psychosis who believed he was a werewolf, to the woman who arrived at his hospital in a wedding dress insisting she was getting married to Harry Styles.   His conversation with Mark also covers our changing attitudes to mental health – and asks how patients can get the care they need when psychiatry is so desperately lacking in staff and hospital beds. It's a must-hear interview!   Get ad-free extended episodes, early access and exclusive content on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wtfisgoingonpod   Follow What The F*** Is Going On? with Mark Steel on Twitter @wtfisgoingonpod   Follow Mark Steel @mrmarksteel   Follow Dr Benji Waterhouse @doctor_benji   And visit our website www.whatthefisgoingonpodcast.co.uk for more information.   Learn more about your ad choices.
