Kimberley has more than a quarter of a million followers on Instagram and she’s been sharing her mental health journey on the social media platform to raise awareness of the condition.
“I started to be very honest about my condition, while I was still very poorly with postnatal mental illness,” she said.
“Over the last three years, I’ve had thousands and thousands of messages. And from everybody – men, women, new mothers with two-week-olds.”
She said she decided, while at her lowest point and being unable to find anyone to relate with online, that she wanted to be there for people going through a similar experiences in the future.
Kimberley is now recovering and adores spending time with her little boy.
“I’ve got this incredible relationship with my son, that I was so worried I would never have,” she said.
“So I really want people to know that you can, and will, get better and that it can actually make your relationship with your child even more special.”
