You can find me on a little stall at the fantastic so grab your tickets now!

I'll be there with some copies of my children's book all about fighting scary thoughts and with a sign-up sheet to be on the mailing list for my upcoming book for coping and thriving emotionally after having a baby. I will also be able to answer any questions you have about mental wellbeing, OCD and perinatal mental health. So please do come and say hello if you're there. I may even have some free pens.

We all have different brains.

There are no 'bad' brains or 'good' brains, they all have strengths and difficulties. Just like our personalities do.

So rather than spending your time criticising the brain you have and wishing for a different one, try to work WITH the brain you have.

This means figuring out how it works; what it is good at, what it struggles with. Then, work out what would be helpful for you to build on; note they i said helpful for YOU, not trying to make your brain work like someone else's.

This way, you can give yourself reasonable expectations and compassion and still work on making changes to improve the way you feel and how you live your life.

An example might be if you have time blindness- rather than criticising yourself, figure out whether this is impacting your life and if so, let yourself look into helpful ways to manage this, whilst accepting that this is hard for you.

Whether your brain is an OCD brain, an ADHD brain, and autistic brain, or any other brain...you need to work with its strengths and figure out ways to help with the difficulties, rather than expecting it to work like someone else's brain.
