Featured Life Story

Katie’s Story

Katie joined Mustard Tree’s life-skills and employability training placement ‘Freedom’ after a period of homelessness caused by multiple factors.

“I was in a major depressive state”

Katie* has bipolar disorder and has had problems with mental health in the past. “I’d been taking medication for 12 years but stopped taking them early last year and became really unwell quite quickly. It sent me into a major depressive state last September and I ended up being sectioned for two months”.

Katie says that the sectioning was necessary for her recovery, but it started a sequence of events which ultimately led to her falling through the cracks and into a deeper depression.

*To protect identity, name has been changed and photo posed by an actor.
