Mind Your Head
Rewatch now!
Yas Necati is a writer, poet, campaigner, and drag king. They will talk about the need for better LGBTQ+ mental health provision and explore their own mental health journey, their experience of depression, anxiety, psychosis and self-harm/suicidal thoughts, and the importance of self-care.
Through their work Yas explores themes of queer and trans identity, migrant identity, mental health, recovery, community and resistance. They campaign on gender-based and queer based-rights, run workshops on self-care, and occasionally perform as their drag act alter-ego, Turkish pop star Tarkan.
