Mental Health Q&A

I’ve completed lots of Q&As before but I’ve never done one that solely focuses on my mental health and so I thought I would give it a go. I hope I answered all of your questions – if not ask me in the comments at the end! Do you have any rituals or objects that […]

Weekly Update (7th October – 13th October) Up-cycling and a trip to Wales

I would like to apologise in advance for how long this post is! We went up to Wales this weekend, however I knew we were not going to be doing much and so I thought I would include it in my weekly update. I’ve struggled a lot this week with stress and it’s had a […]

Goals for 2020 – Blogtober #13

With the new year fast approaching I thought I would take some time to sit down and decide what I want to achieve in 2020. I’ve had a lot of ups and downs during 2019 but I finally feel like I’ve turned a corner by reaching out for some help. Now that I am on […]

World Mental Health Day – Living Life with Anxiety and Emetophobia – Blogtober #10

The 10th October 2019 marks World Mental Health Day and so for today’s post I thought I would share my mental health story with you. If you’ve been following my blog for a while you may already know my story, however I felt like today would be a good day to share it again, especially […]

My first 5 Mental Health Posts – Blogtober #6

If you haven’t been following my blog from the begining then you may not have seen some of my firsts posts discussing my mental health.

Autumn Date Ideas (AD)

Autumn’s weather can be unpredictable and sometimes a little disappointing, however that does not have to stop you from enjoying a date (or two!). Those cold, dark nights are the perfect romantic backdrop for a relationship to blossom. The cold weather brings about thoughts of cozying up on the sofa with blankets, hot tipples and […]

Mental Health Update (I Saw A Mental Health Nurse)

On Tuesday 27th August I had an appointment with the mental health nurse at my surgery. It had taken about 6 weeks for that appointment to come through. The appointment wasn’t until 2:30pm and so I had all morning to worry about it. I felt that there was a lot of pressure on this appointment […]

A month of self care

It’s safe to say that here in England we’ve had a rather rubbish summer and I think it’s been the same for most of the world. Summer is my favourite season for a number of reasons. I enjoy the sun and sitting outside for ten minutes reading a book is a real treat, in addition […]

A Mental Health Update

It’s been a while now since I last checked-in with you all and told you about how I’m feeling with my mental health. Now seems like a good time to document how I’ve been feeling lately. To sum it up in one word I’ve felt frustrated. It’s dawned on me recently that my mental health […]

My Week Of Self Care

My week of self care for when my mental health makes me feel physically unwell. As you’ve probably heard me mention the start of July was tough for me. I had numerous appointments to attend, which aggravated my anxiety. My heightened state of anxiety began to make me feel somewhat depressed and took its toll […]
