I’m Laura, and work on the membership and publications side of things here at YoungMinds

I’ve chosen the blog “Depression, Dad and Me” as it struck me straight away. It’s beautifully and poignantly written with great frankness and honesty which I’m always in awe of. Opening up your intensely personal world and experience is an extremely brave thing to do and the double aspect of talking about the writer’s own experience of mental health issues but also their fathers alerts us to the multiple layers mental health can encompass. A really touching blog pivotal in helping in the education and understanding of mental health that we all need. Thank you so much for sharing.
