A little about me

HI everyone, my names Niketa and here on my blog is where we can brutally honest about absolutely anything. I’m 31 years old (feel about 80) I have 3 children a boy and 2 girls. I now have a new partner and 2 step daughters and lets not forget the 2 dogs…… Life is MAD to say the least. I suffer with various mental health issues. I had quite a traumatic childhood which then lead me to a 10 year on and off toxic relationship. I then spent nearly 3 years on my own before I met my now amazing partner, but through my life suffering with mental health problems I’ve crumbled I’ve cried I’ve lost it but most importantly I made it….. even on my darkest days I had little eyes watching me. I couldn’t give up even when I wanted to. I’m not by any means a preacher I’m still learning, I’m still trying with motherhood mental health and life in general. I’ve had a lot of trauma in my life and I really want to channel it into something positive, so this is me…. ‘The Mental Mummy.

I can be loud crazy and opinionated. I can be loving and emotional. I can also be unstable, vulnerable, angry or hyperactive. I have extreme highs and extreme lows and as most people know with mental health, there’s no in-between. I really want to shine a light on the real side of being a mum with mental health problems.
