Re-Release - Transition | Bradley Dryburgh | Mental Health living with cystic fibrosis (CF)

This podcast is a re-release and first published on the 05/02/2024 as part of the CF Strong initiative. Host and fellow CF community member Brad Dryburgh explores the relationship between cystic fibrosis and mental health.

Joining Brad are six people in their 20s living with CF, who share honest, first-person perspectives on how CF has affected their mental wellbeing and the ways they navigate these experiences.

The conversation explores social anxiety, the pressure of explaining CF to others, the impact of CF on life choices, and the importance of finding strategies and support that work for you. The guests reflect on the emotional and less visible aspects of living with a lifelong condition, offering a range of perspectives from within the CF community.
