Consultant Psychiatrist Dr. Mike Nowers FRCPsych. says in the foreword to “A Guide to Coaching and Mental Health” .....
“What is also a sad but undeniable fact is that of all the illnesses that affect human’s mental illness is the least understood and the most feared and ridiculed. It is no surprise that many people with mental illness pretend that it does not exist or hide their symptoms from family and friends rather than confess to suffering. This means that they may well be in the workplace, often in responsible or potentially dangerous circumstances when not at their best and prepared to deny, often vehemently, that there is anything wrong with them.”
“Mental ill-health costs business over £9 billion each year.”
