00:00Catherine's done so much work with mental health charities anyway,
00:03she would have that sort of deeper understanding, in a way, I suppose,
00:07both of them, when they came with you.
00:08Absolutely. I think, you know, at the start, actually,
00:11my family were the hardest people to speak to,
00:14because I think they know, in my circumstance in particular,
00:17they knew me many ways better than I knew myself.
00:20And so to open up about to my family was a very challenging step.
00:25So I initially went into therapy,
00:27and at the right time, my family got involved,
00:30and I was very fortunate they did, because they did have to be patient.
00:33They had to sit on the sidelines and really watch and see me suffer.
00:36And it was very challenging for them to...
00:40Because all they wanted to do was help.
00:41Of course.
00:42And then when the timing was right,
00:44and I think timing was so important,
00:46that they came in and they understood,
00:47and they were able to understand, you know, a lot more than I actually thought.
00:51And I recognise the work that both Catherine and William have done
00:54in mental health and that has...
00:56Oh, it's fantastic.
00:57-...helped me.
00:58Absolutely.
