Blue CEO Leonie Young at the 'Happiness and Its Causes' Conference,
Sydney Convention Centre, May 2007
"I know Craig went through his own anguish with mental illness and if it can affect him it can affect anybody. I hold him in high esteem as I believe him to
be very credible and someone who has a real passion for what he does,
particularly calling Rugby League on the ABC.
Like many Australians today, Craig changed his life so he could manage his illness. Through medication and a healthy lifestyle of yoga, meditation and laughter he is now living a healthy life. His story is a must-read. His triumph
is truly remarkable and will inspire anyone lucky enough to read it."
Wayne Bennett
Coach Brisbane Broncos
"Broken Open" is an important book. It is blunt, uncomplicated and direct.
It pulls no punches. It describes the devastating effects of mental illness
on a man and his family. Most importantly, it offers hope. It describes the
personal and professional partnerships that need to be in place to
promote recovery and resumption of a productive life. It takes real courage
for a man like Craig to tell his story. We should all be grateful that he has
taken the time and effort to share his experiences and insights with us."

Clinical Advisor Beyond Blue
