Psyche is a mental health and socio political magazine that aims to engage and provoke discussion. We embrace the therapeutic and transformative nature of story telling and human expression.
Our desire is to create a platform for a broad range of sociopolitical themes to be discussed, with an open submission policy in place to ensure that content is relevant and current. Working within the framework of ‘the psyche’ we are keen to explore creativity and its relationship with everyday experiences and current affairs. That focus has lead us to the intersection of the mind, mental health, philosophy and politics.
In this CONFRONTATIONS issue we have 28 pieces by writers, poets, an environmental collective, social workers, actors, singer songwriters, fashion designers, librarians, baristas, art students and copy writers and more sharing their perspectives. We tackle subject matter ranging from mental health, to fat-phobia, eco-anxiety, police brutality, Brexit, the political climate in Nothern Ireland, benefits, sexism, personal relationships and more; each one a unique interpretation of confrontation.
