6 months ago I wrote my final words to my ex how to explain to my son that Mum wasn’t here anymore. That night I was in a&e from self harm. I’ve fought hard. It’s been a tremendous battle. I’m still fighting, but I’m here. Speak out guys. You’re so worth it.

The one and only Anwar El Ghazi is rumoured to be going to Villa Park this evening. So now I’m torn as to which kit to wear. Do I go with my lucky no. 7 or go nostalgic?
Every one of my clients today are getting a lesson on Aston Villa and why today is significant. They’re also getting an ‘up the Villa’ when they leave.

I woke up this morning to a realisation: I’m back!! I have truly missed this version of myself. Happy, confident, loving myself. Spitting in the face of anxiety and depression, no more self hatred, no more fear. I win.
Celebrating many things today, but mainly that today marks 4 months cut free. That was the moment I knew I had to make some changes or I’d be dead within months. It’s not been easy by any means, but I’ve done it. So cheers all, here’s to healing scars 💪
It is absolutely INSANE what happened tonight. I don’t believe it now. I doubt I will tomorrow. My voice is in tatters, my heart is full. We just beat Bayern Munich in the champions league.. us.. Aston Villa. If I die tonight, I’ve seen what I needed to. I was there.

Gonna be sat 5 rows in front of my kid and ex husband for Bournemouth. Probs need to turn my mouth down a little. On another note, who’s up for getting pissed in brum that weekend?
I gotta say it, so many people have reached out the past 24 hours. I am overwhelmed. Some have been there, some just want to give their support. To every single person, I thank you❤️. You’ve no idea how much it means. To anyone going through it, reach out. Please🙏.I’m listening
Between you and me, I am so fucking drunk right now. This is me before at 12:39 my hair is back in control now. Covid got it before. and a pic of my first drink and 867th drink. It’s a good Saturday. My friend Sam is just the best.
43 (NOT 50!) isn’t all bad. Had a rather pleasant day in the office, got flowers that I didn’t have to buy myself and I’m about to head out for dinner with my perfect boy. Thanks for love, you’ve all made a middle aged woman feel very special xx
I met Gary recently. I didn’t know about football til 2008 so asked what position did you play? “I was a striker”. That’s cool.Did you score many? “A few”. He seemed a great bloke. I found out today just how big a person he was. Im glad I had the chance to have a drink with him❤️
I’m so fucking excited about tomorrow I’m worried I’m gona pee the bed. Anyone that is not a Villa fan will have no idea how it feels. From that day in 2016 to now. Oh my fucking days.

New phone case has arrived. This was a fucking good day. Little Emi was so good to my boy. Gave him a little pep talk in the tunnel and all. (Note: my lad was meant to get Watkins but the kid with Emi was too tall so they had to swap😂)
One thing you don’t realise when you have serious MH issues is how much you just don’t give a fuck about anything. There’s just no energy for it. It’s a great feeling taking pride in my home and my appearance again.
Just had a client sit there saying the most racist terms. So when I politely told him to stop it and that I won’t tolerate that language, he told me I need to learn to laugh at it. I corrected him with a few choice words. What the fuck is wrong with people?!
As a way to battle my anxiety, I’ve started to throw myself into situations that are out of my comfort zone. As a result, I’ve realised that life can actually be pretty fun out the house. It’s not been easy, but I’m dead proud of myself for pushing the boundaries. 💪🏼

Hi Chris, trust you’re well. Firstly, it’s “none”, but more importantly, how do you know they’re “fresh from other countries”? Also, where do you get your money from?
Took some time this morning to think about the first baby I lost through miscarriage, 8 years ago today. It’s not spoken of enough and countless couples suffer a tragic loss in silence. Fly in peace my little angels 🪽
#miscarriage
Waking up to messages of my brothers boarding their flights has got me off to a good start for a Monday!! 2 years since I saw my family and now they’re nearly here!!!!!!!!
Today I have: taught my secretary all about Aston Villa, taught my colleague about perverts on the internet and pissed off a racist. That my friends, is a successful day.
So I met someone off here recently who was surprised I’m small because I have a big personality. So in case people think I’m a giant, I’m just putting it out there, I’m small. 5’5 1/2. 56kg. Not 6’4 and 108kg. Thanks for listening x
Ever since I found out puffins were real after watching puffin rock with my son as a toddler, I’ve been desperate to see them. I woke up this morning and decided to have a me day. And I saw puffins! 5.5 hour round trip for 2 hours of heaven was totally worth it!!! 😍😍
It’s been a tough day, but I’m now at the pub, the football is on and it’s my birthday tomorrow. So I’m going to do what any good woman would do and get pissed. Cheers to the next chapter!
So I took Meatball to my lads game and some kid was playing with him. After the match his brother comes over to me and whispers “I wouldn’t let him play with Meatball, he’s a wolves fan” 😂
Happy Friday!! Get my boy back later after a date day with his gf. He’s sent me the sweetest selfies. The mum has text me to say they’re having a great day and my baby is very polite and well mannered. Good chat with my bro earlier. Today is a good day. X
If they’re gona make me get here 30mins before my lads game kicks off and it’s pissing down with rain, then I’m gona make the most of that 30 mins.

On another note, my lads team won 8-2 and the keeper of the other team was called off pitch 1/2 way through the second half, by his mum who ripped the gloves off the kid and threw them at the coach and proceeded to shout abuse at him. So that was entertaining.
My son, my dogs, Aston Villa. Oh and my family. And my friends Donna and Sam. They’re awesome. And my ex husband has been pretty cool recently too. And some of my twitter friends. I’m a very lucky lady. ❤️
Not the result we wanted but despite this, I’ve had the BEST day. Seeing old friends, making new ones. I forgot I liked chatting to randoms before my life (and head) went bad. We have some amazing people in our fanbase. So good to be back at Villa Park with my boy. 10/10.
My boy is home. “Mum I know you made me a stranger things bedroom but now I want it back to Villa”. I need to make a wall from almost black to Villa blue ffs
My lad got players player of the season today at his football presentation 🌟.He really deserved it, and I know being recognised by his peers means a lot. I’m so proud. I came home, and Emmy brought shit in and put it in my shoe. So I went and bought myself flowers.
#callmemiley
The good thing about next Tuesday is I’m probs gona eat a fuck load. Once I’ve worn the unforgiving dress and then I can just shove every single piece of food down my gob. Unless it’s shit food then I won’t. Also I’m gona be dancing all night with my mum. I’m kind of excited.
I’m so excited. Seeing my best friend in the whole world today who I haven’t seen for way too long and I get to meet her little baby and Villa are back. Today is gona be a good day. 💖💜💙
Labour guy just come to my door. He said the area is 0.3% difference between Labour and the cunts. (He didn’t use that language). Might loiter outside the polling station and tell people to vote Labour. If my hair looks good and I take a cute dog I can be very convincing.
And just like that, a year of revision and hard work, and it’s done. Waiting on the guest of honour to arrive to celebrate him giving his all. Oh, and he lost a tooth mid exam so I’m taking that as a lucky sign. Cheers to my perfect, not so little man. 💙
All the parents of children sitting 11+ exams today, my heart is with you. My anxiety is off the charts. The amount of prep we’ve done over the past year all boils down to right now. I’m so fucking proud of his determination. Just want to give my boy a squeeze. ❤️
I have a strong disliking for people who do this. And yes, I am on a train, that’s how serious I am about going out. My intention is to drink my body weight in gin prior to demolishing the entire cocktail list.
Guys, my boy has a girlfriend💔And now he’s gone upstairs to talk privately. 😭of course the only advice I gave him was to treat her how he would want a man to treat me. Apparently a lot of men were never given that advice so I got in early with him. Now it’s just me and the dogs
Dougie is gona show us his worth today with a cracking goal from outside the box. Ollie will double the lead with the game ending Brighton 0-2 Villa.

Had a teams call with a client. I said oh I didn’t realise you were on holiday. Looks lovely weather there. It was a filter. He was in his house down the road. I will never understand all of this technology stuff.
Multi tasking at its finest. FIFA downloading, old phone being erased, washing is on and I’ve got gin. I wasn’t convinced I could do the first two but I really need to stop doubting myself.
World’s biggest fucking nause. I’d rather stab myself in the eye with a rusty screwdriver than have to listen to, or look at, this utterly cringey wanker. Fuck off. Dickhead prick.
