    I'm Ally and from the UK. I've been writing for many years on and off but a bit rusty still in places. I absolutely love books and shout about them from the rooftops.

This is a memoir that lots of readers out there may relate to a lot. In the year 2012, everything changed for me after I experienced my first ever panic attack. Five years later, I was finally formally diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and depression. In 2019, I am now pursuing a diagnosis for autism. See how my world has changed since my teen years and why as an adult, I'm fighting hard to get my voice heard.


The following book is rated PG-13 for scenes of emotional distress relating to anxiety, depression and grief. Please be advised before you continue reading. Other trigger warnings are present for trichotillomania, bullying, dark thoughts. If you do decide to give The Depression Diaries a read, thank you for hearing my story.
