I'm a doctor.
I also happen to have experienced mental illness.
For too long, I carried this secret with shame,
Silenced by stigma.
Today is #CrazySocs4Docs Day.
A day to remember those we have lost & start conversations about mental health in healthcare.
Show me your socks!

When we're caught up in the daily grind of work,
It's easy to overlook the tiny yet beautiful things.
How had I not noticed this appear in my garden?

This is my happy place.
Stormy waves, moody sky, blustery wind,
And me!

Imagine waking up every morning, stepping outside and being greeted by this crowd.
I'm very fortunate 💕.
Plus, my mental health is better for it.

It's too easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life.
I needed a reminder today to just slow down and take a breath.

I set out to be a clinical doctor forever.
Then life happened.
I left medicine and, with that, felt completely lost.
I have now found my way again,
Navigating a path less trodden,
But no less fulfilling.
Careers are not linear.

I never go out,
But on Fri, I met 3 choir friends and had the best time seeing Hamilton.
Absolutely next level!

Today was my last day at RCPCH.
The end of another chapter in my very 'alternative' medical career.
There's more than one way to be a doctor,
You just have to be willing to take a risk or two.

On my way up to Edinburgh for my last RCPCH Thrive Paediatrics event.
2 years of empowering, educating and supporting paediatricians to improve their wellbeing and working lives.

Exactly 2 years ago,
I found the courage to join a choir.
I've made friends,
Reconnected with a hobby I loved as a child,
And embraced my love of musicals.
Today we started an 11 minute Wicked medley.
Amazing! 🎵

This book is incredible.
Postnatal psychosis is misunderstood and deeply stigmatised.
This powerful and beautifully crafted book is a real masterpiece.

2024 was a year of singing, baking, doodling, calligraphy, and writing.
But the two new skills that surprised me most were
that I made my own granola,
and I learnt to do fishtail plaits!

3yrs ago, I couldn't go to the supermarket without feeling overwhelmed & panicked by all the people.
This is me today,
At one of Paris' busiest tourist destinations.
I've managed the eurostar, the metro, buses...
I wasn't sure I'd ever do this stuff again,
But here I am!

Some of you might know me from X,
Where, for 8 years I didn't dare show my face,
Too afraid of the stigma associated with mental illness.
But 2024 was a big one for me,
One where I finally felt able to be myself.
So, as we had into 2025, I wanted to say,
There is hope.
Things can be different.

Then I see this, and I'm reminded that small things don't matter as much as I think they do.

I'd always wanted to join a choir but was too nervous.
Then, 2 yrs ago, I found the courage to do it.
Yesterday was our Christmas concert 🎄🎵
A joyous moment of connection, friendship & music making.
Pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zone can yield wonderful things.

Sometimes, you have to slow down and do what restores you.
A pen, a notebook, and a one-shot latte...
20 minutes, and I feel so much better.

So I pulled on my wellies
And...
Turn on the sound and take 30 seconds to just pause...

Some people can't see past a mental health diagnosis.
Any kind of emotional vulnerability gets attributed to the "condition". It's exhausting.
Yet others are encouraging, supportive, and unwavering advocates.
Be that person.
