Hi, my name is Holly. I am a Mum to my cheeky two year boy and wife to my wonderful husband. I work full time in a job I enjoy doing and we have a comfortable roof over our heads. So why then have I spent the last two years feeling lost, alone and struggling to cope with everything?
It’s taken me two years to ask for help and it turns out I have been diagnosed with post-natal depression.
This blog is about my experiences, how I have felt and my journey on the road to getting back to myself.
I’m not a medical professional (I’m afraid a degree in Geophysics doesn’t qualify me to advise anyone on mental health) but I do very much hope that I can help other parents to realise their tough experience is actual normal and that it’s ok to ask for help.
I really feel strongly that, despite a rise in honest parenting blogs, that the struggles of parenting (and in particular the effects on our mental health) are still not being talked about enough.
Thanks for stopping by to see what I’m about and I hope that if you are, like me, a struggling parent, that this blog can help you in some small way.
You're Not Alone
