I also then realised that I'd turned my depression into a sort of dramatic life-script, in which I was the central and leading role.

One of the things, therefore, which held me back from sorting myself out was worrying about what I'd do to get attention if I wasn't depressed and didn't have that 'starring role' on the stage of life!

I nearly resorted to poetry. Honestly. It was terrible...
