So why is this important? Well over three million Australians are living with depression or anxiety, and I am one of them. A questionnaire on the Beyond Blue website was the catalyst for me to seek help after the birth of my daughter, when I honestly felt like she, and my husband, would live a happier life without me in it. I felt like running away but felt frozen and trapped at the same time. I didn’t understand why I felt so helpless. That simple website questionnaire saw me get the help I needed and since that point I have referred back to the website for more tips on managing my mental health, including how to help my husband and others understand my illness.
