The party went well. More than 25 people (+ one greyhound) came over 10 hours to see my lovely new apartment with its views back to the city of Melbourne on the one side and to Mount Macedon in the distance on the other. This is the first time I’ve ever lived alone and the party was to housewarm.

But when the last guest left shortly after midnight I went to my bedroom, lay down, and self-harmed (in a minor way).

Want to make reading a priority in your life?

I love stories. In fact, it’s why I’ve made it my entire life. I write manuscripts, here for work, for the screen, and in various other formats. Reading has always been such a fundamental part of my life but as I got older, it became harder to read. Once upon a time, I’d read up to 20 to 30 books in three months. The past few years I’ve been lucky to read even seven a year. It didn’t make sense because I loved reading so much, but I just couldn’t get my brain to cooperate.

First impressionsAt the beginning of May I embarked on an exciting new journey as Head of Networks (Wales), a role that sees me working closely with local Minds in Wales and supporting them to help more people living with a mental health problem.Day one of the role saw me make the trip to North Wales, visiting my first ever local Mind in Conwy Mind, before heading over to Vale of Clwyd Mind, and it didn’t take long for me to realise that the local Mind network is a very special place indeed, the beating heart of their communities in which they reside and a lifeline to so many.The hyperlocal support responding directly to the needs of communities is impressive, and when you consider there are 19 local Minds across Wales providing mental health support for children, young people and adults, the scale of the offer is staggering and quite unique.

Depression can be linked to a reason, but this isn’t always the case.Sometimes, people will give me examples of things that I’ve achieved or things that I enjoy as reasons why I shouldn’t be depressed, or suggest that these things mean I “love life” and therefore don’t really want to end it.These kinds of comments can make me feel even more isolated and confused, which puts me off seeking help.
