Pathologically Honest

I Survived Pregnancy


Listen Later

Content warning: This episode discusses extreme mental health crisis scenarios, as well as confronting themes around pregnancy. Give this one a miss if these are sensitive topics for you.


This is the story of the year Georgia genuinely didn't think she was going to survive.


The OCD. The insomnia. The darkest of thoughts. The relationship breaking points. The nervous breakdown. The guilt. The fear she was already failing her daughter before she'd even been born.


If you're pregnant and going through it, if you're scared to have a baby because of your mental health, or you've ever wondered if you're the only one finding this unbelievably hard, we made this for you.


Sometimes the most healing thing isn't advice. It's hearing someone say, "Me too." This is the most honest Georgia has ever been about pregnancy. She barely survived it, but this is also the beautiful story of how motherhood ended up saving her.
