Depression and Mental Health Patient Stories
Megan is a first-time mum navigating motherhood, depression, anxiety, and ADHD.
Megan is a writer and a mental health advocate who talks at various charity and healthcare conferences. She wants to help UK mental health services provide personalized support to their patients.
She started a blog to share her experiences and help others facing similar challenges, showing them they're not alone.
Before becoming a mother, Megan lived with anxiety and depression for approximately ten years. She was diagnosed with ADHD as a child but not treated.
In 2016, Megan was also diagnosed with PTSD following an experience that led to night terrors and regular flashbacks.
She hopes you find her stories honest, direct, and helpful.
