A subtle line: societal pressure, mental ill health and addiction
<p><strong>True creatives are natural problem solvers, but how much of our increasingly challenging world is affecting young creatives? This episode begins with the dichotomy of acceptance, failure, fear of being labelled, stigmatised or rejected, resulting in the suppression of emotions which often leads to various forms of self-medication namely through drugs and alcohol. We discuss the hidden dangers of alcohol and substance abuse where personal views are shared on societal pressures which are perpetuated and glamorised throughout creative sectors.</strong></p> <p><strong>#mentalhealth #fashionvanguards #alphaomegalondon #stigma #mentalhealthinfashion #mentaldisorders #selfmedication #substanceabuse #glamourised #addiction #creativesector #fashion</strong></p>

Why we should stop talking about the 'tortured genius'
<p><strong>Our fifth instalment begins with falsifying the romanticised image of the ‘tortured genius’, a damaging stereotype where biased opinions of critical acclaim are slanted towards work derived from an artist’s personal struggle with mental illness. We analyse why this is a cultural phenomenon and whether it influences the behaviours of young creatives. We then conclude discussions on the harmful effects of social norms and the deleterious effects they have on young people.</strong></p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>#mentalhealth #fashionvanguards #alphaomegalondon #stigma #mentalhealthinfashion #mentaldisorders #toturedgenius #socialnorms #negativenarratives #creativesector #fashion</strong></p>

Identifying the threats to the creative mind.
<p><strong>At this crucial point in our series we seek to identify the social constructs that lie within the fabric of mental ill health and what effects they have on the creative mind. We expose social pressures and the growing use of social media platforms. Where we conclude on the concept of the ‘influencer’ and how this has shaped our society, particularly those within fashion and creative sectors asking whether the creative mind is more at risk of mental ill health and if so why?</strong></p> <p><strong>#mentalhealth #fashionvanguards #alphaomegalondon #stigma #mentalhealthinfashion #mentaldisorders #technology #personalchallenges #socialfactors #creativesector #fashion</strong></p>
