My life journey ups and downs
I feel frustrated I've not achieved much with my life. Confidence, not feeling good enough and mental health problems....all linked really held me back and I didn't get support throughout school for my eating disorder, social anxiety or struggling academically because I worked hard and was quiet and passed exams and coursework no one noticed but despite working hard and never getting into trouble I came out with 2 Cs and Ds at GCSE. It was only when I was at uni the 2nd time doing the access to nursing I was assessed as having dyslexia and dyspraxia. I always loved animals and started horse riding when I was 13, nearly 14 but before that I rode at PGL when I was 10, cried the whole way around and said I would never go on a horse again lol. When I was about 12, I had always known I was adopted but learnt that my birth mum who had died not long after I was born had loved horses and a school friend had a pony I visited with her and I had a go at riding again at cent...
