Social factors are a key cause of mental health problems. They limit people's access to health-protective resources, like knowledge, money, power, prestige + beneficial social connections. To prevent poor mental health we need policy that supports life span social connection.

When we understand that mental ill health is largely about circumstances that lead to nervous system dysregulation + loss of connection to self, others + the world then we can see how self harm + suicide fit in. These are not individual problems they are social ones.

I used to tell parents condescendingly “oh you just gotta offer healthier foods” when I worked with them in paediatrics feeding disorders, not knowing how inaccessible & limited food choices could be. Now I work WITH the social determinants & help them maximise their choices.

I try to do good science and impact society through my research on most days but the most impactful thing I’ve done all week has probably been to simply sit down and listen to students and colleagues who needed a place to share their thoughts and worries.

Understanding the social determinants (and the commercial determinants) reframed our understanding of health and how we formulate policies in healthcare.
