'You can fight back and push through anything'

A Glengormley woman has opened up on her daily battle with anxiety and how learning to push through has helped her cope with single motherhood and eventually quit her job to start her own business.

"I would walk down the street then I'd have to phone my Daddy to come and pick me up because I couldn't go any further and felt as if the whole world was caving in on top of me. "I finally graduated this year in March, two years late due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Last year I bought my council house and I am now a home owner," she added.

"I now have three employees and loads of clients, cleaning B&Bs and some offices across Belfast and also a contract with an estate agent. "When I'm kept busy and working, I don't have time to think about anything else. But if I'm in a queue or waiting for something, I can feel my throat closing over and that's when I need to have a chat with myself to get me through.
