ABOUT ME
Hello, I'm James & not long ago, I was a very anxious and somewhat overwhelmed husband & dad.
After about 12 years of setbacks & enough coffee to sink a ship, I’m a much happier dad. As previously mentioned, I want to try & help other dads be the best they can without losing their mental health.
Mental health battles are something I am all too familiar with.
In 2010, my GP suggested I do a 12-week CBT course with the NHS. During this course, I was diagnosed as having Pure OCD, which explained a lot.
