What's it's like living with family who suffered with mental health.
I was a little girl under the age of 10 living with my family in a big house. Both my mam and nan had mental health in different ways. I started to see different changes especially with my mam.
One day I came home from school and I saw my mam sat on a chair, I spoke to my mam and said "look what I made in school today" she looked at me in a very angry way and shouted "GET OUT!" I looked down and saw that my mam had wet herself. I started crying, walked out and told my grand parents. They told me shes been like this all day. This is when my mam's mental health started to get worse on different occasion's, which resulted in her being in and out of hospital because at times my mam would not go to the doctors to get her monthly injection sometimes and that's when she use to deteriorate. My mam started to get aggressive, very violent to me and our family. Me and my mam use to sleep in the same bedroom and I had many sleepless nights because when she was poorly she would do things like not sleeping and walking around the house in the middle of the night with the lights out.
