Not all episodes of serious mental illness have a happy ending but luckily mine did. Am so grateful to be with my little squirt! @ActionOnPP#maternalmentalhealth#grateful

@BipolarUK@DrT_Gergel what a fantastic conference last night. I was finally diagnosed with Bipolar 1 Disorder a month ago whilst an inpatient, held under a section. I am a single parent and doctor. I sing. I picked up so many nuggets to help me live well 🤞so thank you.
@DrT_Gergel have just watched you on the bipolar uk conference. Would love to get involved in research and feel my background could be of use. Currently recovering from a severe manic and psychotic episode and have been diagnosed with Bipolar 1. Please get in touch.
