We’re excited to say this Sunday Juliette is on a panel at , focusing on ‘Clubs, creatives, communities and mental health’ curated by Clubber2Clubber , a non-profit organisation promoting wellbeing in the clubbing community.

The discussion will be about mental health within club and creative communities - how we can use our own resources and networks to fight for positive mental health and how we can reduce harm in our club and creative environments. At Psyche, we think this conversation is more important than ever, particularly with recent catastrophic challenges to both the creative and clubbing industries and we are excited to be involved in this vital discussion and reflect on what needs to change.

The other panellists include Scottish rapper, author, Social commentator and BAFTA nominated film maker Loki the Scottish Rapper; Raihan from London based QTIBPOC sober event misery; and Scottish harm reduction charity Crew: mind altering.

To mark I composed a list of lessons I have learnt since becoming a mental health professional. Working in is an honour and I owe all the lessons I have learnt to the people I have had the chance to work with.

Hello, as Black History Month draws to a close we wanted to continue the celebration and offer our Psyche feed to some wonderful Black Creatives over the coming weeks.

Special thanks to long time friend of Psyche, Adam Ogwu, for planting the seeds of this takeover and for linking us up with the wonderful people at A Scot Gallery (watch this space to see some work from their newest exhibition + others from across the UK).

We are looking for more black creatives to takeover Psyche's feed over the coming weeks, so if you are a visual artist, designer, musician, dancer, or filmmaker and would like to use this space, please drop us a DM or send us an email we'd love to hear from you. [email protected]

Last week of Words During Covid! 🄶🅁🄾🅆🄸🄽🄶 This year has thrown us all so so many challenges and there seems to be no sight of it slowing down. We wanted to take the opportunity to reflect on the experiences this period has given us as well as look into the future and speculate what might come from all of this.

Thank you to .penman for putting this together a couple days ago, a very useful guide of how you can be actively anti-racist. We have to be better allies and not leave the burden of emotional labour, education and leading the struggle to our POC communities.

As two white women, it’s not our place to speak for black POCs, but we can use our platform to amplify more voices, we can educate ourselves and take action. Silence is not an option. We all need to do more. Challenge all racist behaviours as you see them, sign the petitions, make calls, donate…see above to make a start.

We are still learning. Please feel free to get in touch with us if you have any thoughts on how to use this platform.

There are many charities right now that could do with some financial help but we have decided to raise some funds for Women's Aid. They have launched an urgent appeal as their services have had a big increase in demand during the Covid 19 outbreak.

A copy of Psyche issue 2 is £15 and we shall donate £5 of each sale to Women’s Aid. We shall be posting in a hygienic and safe way, and shall be going to the post office just once a week to complete orders.

‘Words during Covid’ each week we shall set a word prompt & you can respond to it in any way you wish. We shall share them on our socials and on a blog page. We thought it could be interesting and hopefully a cathartic activity to do in the midst of all this, and to create a collaborative diary of sorts.

Email your response to: [email protected] with the subject line ‘Words during covid’ before 9pm Weds 23rd April. 💌 We can share your name/tag or it can be anonymous. 💜 1st word: COMFORTABLE

How are u doing?

We hope you are all keeping well in these unsettling times. We’ve been a little quiet on here as we’ve been processing new realities, adjusting to WFH and like many others, coming to terms with an unpredictable income over the coming months. The constant breaking news has created anxieties for us all. Jeez the internet has never been so simultaneously consuming, powerful, and therapeutic. Please take a break and put on the ol’ aeroplane mode regularly.

We are setting a weekly word prompt for you to send us responses, creating a collaborative quarantine diary - more on that soon. If you have any other ideas of what you would like to see Psyche doing right now, to help ease the stress or if you’d like us to simply be somewhere you can thought-drop or ramble, comment ideas or send us a wee message. We are not sure when issue 3 shall be happening, but it shall happen, so with that in mind, get writing!

Hopefully we can pull together in these strange times to support one another through kindness, patience and creativity. We want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to all of the key workers and NHS staff out there on the front line right now.

Stay inside people, check in on those around you & take it easy!

Take care and sending love, Lucy & Juliette xx
