I qualified as a teacher in 2004, the days of the numeracy and literacy hour. I have 20 successful years in education and have been fortunate to work in around 10 different schools.However, during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, my world turned upside down. Having gone into isolation for two years, I returned to work and suffered chronic stress, post-traumatic stress disorder, dissociation, amnesia and depression. I suffered from losing my short-term memory and was referred to a neurologist, who told me that I had reached chronic burnout and "broke my brain"! In this autobiography, I describe my mental health episode and my recovery: from going into therapy, meeting a medium, having an awakening from spiritual healing and re-framing my brain through hypnotherapy. This is my journey.I hope this story gives those who are struggling with mental health the strength to overcome their challenges.
