The 35-year-old woman shot to fame after her bestseller was celebrated for normalising mental health conversations.

For a period of ten years, she received treatment for dysthymia, a chronic, low-grade form of depression characterised by persistent sadness and lack of motivation.

This long personal struggle became the foundation of her bestselling book, according to her Bloomsbury biography. Drawing from her own experiences with therapy and emotional recovery, she explored themes of vulnerability, resilience, and the complexities of living with a mood disorder in a society that often overlooks mental health.
