Tim Peck, a former member of Victoria Police, faced a severe decline in his mental health, leading him to contemplate suicide. Fortunately, Tim survived this dark period and has since dedicated his life to helping those with mental health conditions, particularly first responders.
After leaving Victoria Police and undergoing his recovery, Tim worked at Beyond Blue and the Police Association of Victoria as Manager of Welfare. He is now the Director of Responder Assist at Phoenix Australia, the Australian National Centre of Excellence in Posttraumatic Mental Health, focusing on the mental health of first responders.
In this episode, Tim openly discusses his battle with suicidality, so please note if you are feeling sensitive to such conversation today. However, his story also highlights the crucial message that even in the darkest times, recovery is possible, thriving is achievable, and these conversations serve as a beacon of hope and connection.
Tim’s recovery journey, documented through extensive journaling, culminated in a book 'The Invisible Obvious' that promises to be an incredible read.
