Please remember that no episode of the MyoMinds podcast can be used as a replacement for medical advice and/or care.

In this episode, I speak with Alex, who tells me all about his experiences battling with poor mental health whilst living underwater, with hardly any connection to the outside world. This episode is so interesting and gave me a new perspective on the lives of people doing these kinds of jobs.

You can find Alex on his Instagram account @alex.journal.journey
