I’m in my 30’s now and found out that I suffer from depression. It was a lightbulb moment realising that the feeling I’d become accustomed to for the previous 15 years was actually something.

For me, I never fitted in with anyone at University and felt alone. Going into work I started with small companies, providing tech for sales roles. The sales way of ‘high pressure’ was transferred to how projects should be managed.

Today I try and help out by building a community via running a meet-up. The people I have around me today and the confidence I have to be able to be depressed and get out of it with the help of others around me keeps me going.
