That night led me to start speaking out about my experiences -a police cell was the last place I needed to be and I wanted to tell people what happened.

I signed up to be a Mind media volunteer and soon I’m pretty sure I was asked To be honest I set up my blog, To be honest I didn’t speak, when I was very poorly. There’s. I wouldn’t even speak to my counsellor, nor would I leave the house to see her!

I have always loved writing.

Speaking out in the media about mental health and writing about mental health has given me a sense of worth and achievement.

I am no longer the housebound girl that nobody knew existed -I am a young woman on a mission to change the world. I realised that I love speaking out about mental health. This is the case. I love the comments I get from people telling me that I helped them and what I went through -the pain and the trauma, was almost worth it to make a positive difference to someone else’s life. This week Penguin Books are releasing Dear Stranger, a book I was honoured to write for. Essentially, I really hope that the words I wrote for Dear Stranger give readers hope because life really can change in a moment.
