This week's episode features the story of "Tammy," a survivor of Goodna/Wolston Park Mental Hospital, in her own words. The focus of her story lies in the aftermath of her time spent in institutions and how her hospitalization has affected the rest of her life.

Trigger warnings for this episode include the use of explicit, outdated, and ableist language; mention of suicide and self-harm; and strong themes of physical, psychological, and sexual abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

If you are having thoughts of suicide or self-harm, help is available. In the U.S., dial 9-8-8. For a list of international suicide hotlines, please consult here: https://blog.opencounseling.com/suicide-hotlines/

The story from this episode is taken from the book Goodna Girls by Adele Chynoweth.
