Julia's story...
My name is Julia. I am a doctor, a pathologist in fact. I have Bipolar Disorder and I have suffered with OCD for over 30 years. Like many doctors I suffered in silence for years, too afraid to reach out for help.
Eventually the OCD became so severe, and my home and work life were so impaired - that the shame I felt for having a mental health problem was outweighed by the desire to turn my life around. I wish I hadn’t delayed seeking help but I’m thankful that when I did I benefited from confidential support and therapy, and my whole life has dramatically changed for the better since that point.
I want to reduce stigma around mental health issues in doctors. I want doctors to take care of themselves as well as they take care of their patients. And if you are struggling as a doctor I want you to seek help early - because you don’t need to suffer in silence - there is help out there.
I enjoy creating photographic art. I express quirky ideas with miniature railway figures – using humour and perspective to change minds. And 100% of the proceeds from selling this art subsidises confidential support for doctors who are struggling - just like I once was.
