In "Off The Cuff" Season 2, Episode 16, mental health campaigner, public speaker, and vlogger Jonny Benjamin joins host Danny LoPriore to share his personal story of living with schizoaffective disorder and his tireless efforts to raise awareness and support for youth mental health.

Jonny's mental health journey began at a very young age, with his parents taking him to see a psychologist when he was just five years old. "I didn't understand it. No one explained it to me because no one did right back then," (01:26)

Since then, Jonny has become a prominent figure in the mental health community, creating documentaries on mental health and suicide for the BBC, launching the successful ThinkWell school program in UK secondary schools, and founding the youth mental health charity, Beyond, in 2018.

In this episode, Jonny discusses the challenges he's faced in finding the right support system and how cognitive behavioral therapy has been a game-changer for him. He also shares the story behind the viral #FindMike campaign of 2014 and his ongoing work with Beyond.

"It's been a long journey. I've got a psychiatrist now that I can trust, that I can talk to. I've got a therapist now – it took me like 13, 14 years to find the right support. Like once I found my therapist now, it clarified everything. I feel I was finally listening to myself and just instead of just listening to what other people wanted to tell me and, and you know, I was actually looking out for myself,” (51:14)
