BeeBee: An Introduction

bb headshot 300x298 BeeBee: An IntroductionHello.

So what can I tell you about myself? Well let me start with the basics. I’m a full-time kiddy wrangler (two boys aged 5 and 6), a part-time sub-editor, and constant social media user (you only have to peek at my Twitter account to see that @beebeecavendish).

I have also suffered from depression now for 21 years. I am just 36 years old. Looking back after a series of doctor appointments, and CBT and therapy sessions that something just switched in my brain when I hit puberty. I became withdrawn and felt that everything in the world balanced on how well I did at something. I am now on anti-anxiety medication, and have been on and off for about 3 years. I will be taking it for the rest of my life.

At some point in my working life I have turned my hand to most things. I have had admin jobs, bar tending, comedian, waitress, production journalist, caterer are just the headline acts. I volunteer within my local community too.

I find that the busier I am, the less the darker thoughts tend to bother me.

Looking forward to sharing my life and thoughts with you all here.

About beebeecavendish

I am BeeBee, I have 2 boys, aged 6 and 5.

I have a history on melancholy since puberty, which was finely diagnosed as anxiety and depression in 2008. I made my 1st suicide attempt aged just 15, the feeling that not being here would make everything better is a battle I face far too frequently, as well as the obsessional qualities that go with it.

I try to focus on the little things to keep my head above water. I can be flighty in my likes but always come back to writing, reading and crafting (in one form or another).
