Episode 94: Insomnia with Anna - a podcast by Nicola Bird

In today's episode, Anna shares her journey.

Here's how she describes how life was for her before this understanding: "I have had anxiety for 15 years. I’ve had panic attacks, I couldn’t get on a train, go to a restaurant, the hairdressers, the supermarket or drive. Years later I had ‘post natal depression’ and I was unable to cope, I couldn’t care for my daughter and was treated with medication and CBT. 3 weeks ago I crashed again and was taken to hospital, I didn’t sleep or eat. I was heavily medicated. I couldn’t go back to my own home as I was too frightened. A psychiatrist diagnosed me with GAD and said I was borderline bipolar. I lost 2 and a half stone and couldn’t speak."

Hear what's changed.

Only everything.
