I had what to me is one of the biggest compliments 8ve ever had this morning. A family friend popped in - she is actually like a second mum to me and my brother. She was catching me up on things when she started talking about how a particular issue in their lives was affecting both of them mentally. This is a very traditional woman in her 70s - very stiff upper lip. She finished by looking at me almost in shock and said she never talked like that but that she read everything I posted on fb about mental health and felt, because of what I write, that she could talk to me, and that I’d helped her today
