About the programme
In a mad, mad world, where a sense of belonging and conformity is king, rates of anorexia, schizophrenia, exam-stress and depression are on the rise, illustrating the importance of acknowledging and addressing the issues of the mentally ill.

This compelling documentary, A-Z of Your Head, focuses on young people and the mental health disorders that blight their lives and gives a voice to those who are left to deal with their own madness every day.

These are the stories that never get told, yet are utterly gripping, and lay bare what it feels like to be labelled 'mad'.

Produced by Lambent Productions for Channel 4. Produced and Directed by Lisa Fairbank. Webnotes by Iain Ramsay.
