ARE YOU A MOTHER? And did your mother experience depression, anxiety or any other mental health issue when you were a child? I am doing some research as part of a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology at City University and I would really like the opportunity to talk to "you" about "your" experience of being a mother. If you think you would like to tell me your story, please text 07985 933 686 and I will return your call for a chat without any obligation for you to participate. I hope that this research will be of benefit to you and to others with similar experiences.

Strange time of night for a post like that.

sounds genuine enough to me - these academics like to burn the midnight oil waterfalls!

Hi Spacedonkey and waterfalls - didn't realise you were referring to me? Do I sound too academic? My aim is to help others. My research has to be backed academically to ensure that I take care in what I am doing. I would still love to talk to any mother whose own mother was mentally ill or suffered depression or anxiety or addiction or anything similar - love to all mothers and fathers from loretta1
