Trauma
Past events that probably contributed to my mental health issues
I almost died from epiglotitis when I was 5 years old.
My sister ( 2 years younger) suffered from anorexia throughout our teens and was in and out of hospital.
When I was 18 years old my mum was diagnosed with breast cancer
At one point both my sister and mum were in the hospital at the same time
After a time of remission the cancer returned and spread throughout her body
When I was 24 years old my mum died. Cancer and chemo destroyed her body and brain
