Story
Not many people know but after Maisie was born I suffered from postpartum psychosis a very scary postpartum illness where a mummy has delusions, severe anxiety and distorted reality. If anyone wants to ask me about it please contact me, it’s a very long story but I’m out the other side now and this amazing charity has helped me & my family immensely!
