  • Summary

  • TW// Discussion of suicidal thoughts, self-harm and postnatal psychosis.// CBT Day! Writer and illustrator Laura Dockrill credits Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for changing her life and helping her recover from postpartum psychosis. Laura's stunning memoir 'What Have I Done?' charts her terrifying experience of delusions, insomnia and depression after the birth of her son. She explains how CBT has taken away a lot of the guilt and shame that comes with being an unwell parent. Through studying CBT, Laura learnt to label thoughts - for example naming them 'intrusive', 'compulsive' or 'irrational' - and this helped her to keep the fear at bay. CBT might not work for everyone but it is utterly inspiring to hear how Laura went from being someone who felt broken to someone who can exist happily alongside her fears. Pagedive into PAGE 319 if you need some rational thinking in your life and more self-compassion. I love Laura for writing this book and for being so open about how CBT, medication, therapy and time saved her. --- Social Media: Abby on Twitter and Instagram - @AbbyHollick Laura on Twitter - @LauraDockrill Laura on Instagram - @lauraleedockrill --- Laura's memoir - https://uk.bookshop.org/books/what-have-i-done-motherhood-mental-illness-me/9781529112542 Zombie Mum - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/zombiemum/id1558579877 NHS supportive links for suicide and self-harm: https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/feelings-symptoms-behaviours/behaviours/help-for-suicidal-thoughts/ https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/feelings-symptoms-behaviours/behaviours/self-harm/ Postpartum Psychosis - https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/conditions/post-partum-psychosis/ Action for Postpartum Psychosis - https://www.app-network.org CBT therapy - https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/talking-therapies-medicine-treatments/talking-therapies-and-counselling/cognitive-behavioural-therapy-cbt/overview/ Blindboy podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/an-intro-to-cognitive-psychology-pt-1/id1300577518?i=1000419570336 Nanette (Hannah Gadsby) - https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/80233611 Ten Steps to Positive Living - https://uk.bookshop.org/books/ten-steps-to-positive-living/9781529373455 How to Stubbornly Refuse to Make Yourself Miserable: About Anything - Yes, Anything! - https://uk.bookshop.org/books/how-to-stubbornly-refuse-to-make-yourself-miserable-about-anything-yes-anything/9781472142788 Self-Help For Your Nerves - https://uk.bookshop.org/books/self-help-for-your-nerves-learn-to-relax-and-enjoy-life-again-by-overcoming-stress-and-fear/9780722531556 Nigel Slater podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/a-cook-s-chronicles-a-podcast/id1444767211 --- Page is hosted and produced by Abby Hollick for Good Tape.
