    • “It was back in 2016 when I was 17, that things started to become different. It came out of the blue.”
    • It was back in in 2016 when I was 17, that things started to become different. It came out of the blue. My moods were changing a lot quicker than usual and I started to feel really low, so I just kept myself to myself. 

I first noticed the change when I was on holiday with my family and I kicked off for no reason. I remember saying to my nan, “I've got a problem. I need to sort myself out”. I went to see someone, and that’s when I was told I  had anxiety and depression. I was like, “Ok, that answers a good few questions!”
    • I often don’t know how to explain what I’m going through, so it's difficult. If I need it, I know it’s there for me

A few years ago, during the first Covid lockdown, I was diagnosed with EUPD, which stands for Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder. It’s how I think, feel and behave around others. It’s difficult to explain, but if I’m around someone that I don’t know I tend to be very quiet and keep myself to myself. Or if I’m around family, I’m usually the same. But as soon as I get comfortable, then I start to feel calm and then the real me comes out. It is difficult, I’m not going to lie. It is very difficult.
    • I experience major mood swings. They can be triggered any time. I’m not a big fan of crowded places. I get more anxious in them and start to panic and feel like I need to get away.

Most mornings I struggle to get up. I’ve got my partner to encourage me and to help me get through it, but it’s easier said than done. I just want to lie in bed, watch TV and go back to sleep. I don’t want to be going out socialising with people. I’m a massive overthinker, which doesn’t help. I worry about what people think of me.
    • It just makes me feel low, physically and mentally and I get a bit upset and angry over it as well. I often don’t know how to explain how I’m feeling and what I’m going through, so it’s difficult.
