In this blog, I’m exploring my personal journey through the challenges of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and depression, shedding light on the realities faced by those who deal with these conditions. By sharing my story, I hope to provide comfort and understanding to those who may find themselves in similar situations.
7 years of trauma, upset, not being believed, being told he needs to be ‘more resilient’ and ‘get over his anxiety’ -like it’s some sort of damn choice! So what’s happening you ask? Well it’s something only his closest family know OR can even recognise. He’s started to come out of his room to ‘just hang out’🙌🏻
I genuinely both LOVED the holidays and was fearful about how MY brain would cope. I need a lot of ‘quiet time’ to function, to not become overwhelmed and to be the best mum I can be for my kids. Granted things are different now we home educate, so I thought I could bring a little wisdom as someone around their kids constantly.
