Episode 50 - Insight Changes Everything

Here's was Danielle's life: "I had a complete nervous breakdown, the 3rd in my life, I couldn’t leave my room, I didn’t sleep at all for 3 weeks, I dropped down to 6st 11 (43kg) I couldn’t bath, wash or brush my teeth because I couldn’t be alone for that long. I couldn’t sit down so I paced around in a small circle for about 10 hours a day. I became petrified that I would go crazy & grab a knife & stab myself or jump off of the balcony without any control over myself. I banned anything that could be a hazard from the house. No one was allowed to come into the house as that made me feel even more afraid, I couldn’t eat & just about managed to drink water. I started experiencing hallucinations at night & would wake up to spiders crawling over the walls & bed, to seeing people standing over me & hearing voices in my head (all through lack of sleep & severe stress) hospital was discussed but the crisis team realised that moving me would probably make me worse & I agreed, so I had twice daily visits & calls to check I was still alive." From this....to peace of mind. Listen to her story.
