About me

Gender Female
Location Hertfordshire, United Kingdom
Introduction Hi, I'm Becca and I am in my thirties now. I am newly married (2012) to a wonderful man and we are just beginning the journey of starting to try for a family. I suffer with anxiety and depression and I am still dealing with the grief of losing my dad in 2010. My life at the moment is attempting to make small steps towards improving myself and the way I live. I make these tiny steps on a daily basis, sometimes forward and sometimes a few steps back. But one thing is for sure, I NEVER give up! Some may wonder why I would want to bring a child into all that, but for me it is the most important thing in the world. Yes a baby will bring whole new stresses, but they will be things that give me a massive purpose and so much healing. I have so much to offer to my future children. This blog is going to be all about my journey and a way for me to document my thoughts and worries. I am so much more than my illness and I have so much to offer the world. So there! :-)

When you open your eyes underwater, do you ever worry that you'll drown?

No, because I don't breathe through my eyes.
