Our Young people (18-24) are now more likely to experience a common mental health disorder (CMD), i.e. depression, anxiety or bipolar disorder, OCD or eating disorders.

20 years ago they were the least likely

Diana Ross was my role model when I was growing up.

I wanted to look like her and have hair like her.

However, I didn't realise I knew someone who was a role model and a superhero.

My Mum

The more I learnt about her, the more I admired her.

My mum became a widow while raising four children in her twenties in London.

As the oldest child in her family, she was still expected to support her mother and siblings by sending money for school fees, etc.

Which she did

I am a mum
with a husband,
and a washing machine
with a fraction of my mum's responsibilities and challenges.

Life can still be challenging at times.

So, I cannot imagine what it felt like for her.

Mums are often taken for granted.

People say they are
"Doing what they are supposed to be doing"
" are hardworking."
" are used to it"
" are strong."
or
"It's easy for them."

Which can all be true

But those who work hard to support others also deserve to be supported.

So what can we do to support the superheroes like my mum today?

Well, I want to set up a community group of women.

To create a space so they can

Express what they really feel.

Unburden their anxieties

Feel heard

And supported.
