n: A female of great strength and intellect.

A bit about this blog

Mental health can be both debilitating and isolating. Anxiety is a growing issue amongst young people, and can leave all members of the family feeling that they are alone in the darkness. Not least young women like Soteria.

You are not alone. You are not weak. You are a Titaness.

This blog – written by one young 15-year old woman and her mum, explores their journey, from a worried youngster, through diagnosis of GAD (generalised anxiety disorder), their challenges with mainstream school, through to adjusting to life living with the condition and how, with the right tools, support and mental strength, you can be you again.

A Titaness is a female Titan, renowned for her physical and intellectual prowess. You too can be a Titaness and we encourage you to take strength from our stories, tips and adventures as we battle anxiety together.
