From her own experience of mental illness and what she has learned from friends and family, and extensive research, Samantha Crilly shares a collection of more than 50 inspirational poems that give an honest and relatable insight into what it means to have a mental illness and what causes and triggers may lie behind it. Some are light-hearted and humorous, others go very deep, but all shed new light and have a positive ending for the reader. If you have a mental health issue, Samantha's insightful poems are there as comforting companions. For families and carers of sufferers, these poems bring fresh understanding of what your loved one is battling. Through Samantha's experience of recovery they also bring acceptance, strength and Hope.
Samantha Crilly is a drama graduate from Surrey who has enjoyed writing poetry since she was a child. Having suffered from mental illness during her teenage years and early twenties, she now works tirelessly to promote good mental health through the YouTube channel, Hope with Mental Health, which she created with her twin sister, Charlotte. She enjoys keeping fit and spending time with her close-knit family and friends whose love kept her going through her darkest times. She has made huge steps along her journey to recovery and hopes that her poetry will inspire others to do the same.
