Am I amazing for not wanting to do this **TRIGGER WARNING**

[callmehannahbaker]

At 3.38 this day 2 years ago I was pulled from the wrong side of a bridge by policemen.

I have worked bloody hard to sort my head out.

I have put on nearly 6 stone (and counting) through meds.

I am allowed to live with DD alone

I'm doing bloody good

That's wonderful!

thisjust made me cry OP. Its brilliant news. Youve come so far.
It doesn't matter how big or small you are as long as you've got your stability in your head and your child. I wish you lots of happiness xx

OMG that is so amazing. You should be so proud of yourself. Good luck and enjoy your DD. X

Your post is a true honest to goodness post. You lead a real life not like some on here that spend abnoxios(?) amounts of money on take outs.
Well done ❤️

Well done OP that's great news. You DD is a very lucky girl. Wishing you all the best

Well done, this is brilliant xx

What a lovely thread, op. Well done and keep going - you've learnt been incredibly strong over the last couple of years, so when you do decide to focus on sorting your sleep/weight, you know you've got the mental fortitude to achieve whatever goal you set yourself

LEarnt = clearly

Lovely thread Well done ❤️

Well done. Long may your good health continue. You should be proud of your hard work, and remember what you've achieved. x

DD just woke up and the first thing she grumbled was "love you mummy". I'm so glad I'm here
Well done OP.
One step at a time, be kind to yourself, I'm glad you're here to describe this.

What a fantastic post to read!!

Well done!! I hope you and your daughter continue to enjoy life xxx

My sister suffers terribly with her MH and has put a fair bit of weight on. She has started SW and has lost a stone this month..it's great to see her confidence grow x

I don't usually comment on threads like this but I felt compelled to show you the love ❤️- well done OPyouve come a long way and you should be proud of yourself!

What a beautiful thread! Keep on being kind to yourself & look at yourself thru' your daughters eyes. You've come such a long way - well done! xxx

This is amazing news. You should be so proud of yourself. Wishing you all the luck and love in the world that your recovery carries on and it's onwards and upwards for you and DD xx

You've made me all teary too!
I'm so pleased for you op. It's a pleasure to read your happy ending here today...
Don't worry about your weight...that can be sorted in a while. Enjoy your new hair in a few weeks, and may your upward spiral long continue! X

Such a lovely thread OP, it is really great to hear that you are doing so well now sending you love and more strength.

Couldn't read this and not reply. So lovely to see the nicer side of mumsnet :-)

You deserve to be proud, well done you and long may it continue.

Good luck for your future, it sounds like it will be a happy one.

You've made me feel emotional OP

I am so glad there's light in your life now

OP you're amazing

Regarding the weight gain are you on Olanzapine or similar?[i,m an RMN]these medications do unfortuntly massivly increase your appetite have you been referred to a dietician to help with the weight gain? huge congratulations though you have done brilliantly

By the way i,m a lot bigger then you op , but i,m well aware that some atypical antipsychotics have weight gain as a side effect.

You ARE amazing, and right to be so proud of yourself - well done!!! So nice to see such a positive post and hope it will be an inspiration to some who might be reading it in the frame of mind you were back then.

So happy for your DD who has a mummy to love
