'I am more than a statistic'... moving last blog post of [Faye Larkin]

TW for suicide including method


"Faye Larkin, 26, had been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder when she was just 13 but she claimed during her teenage years that experts including a psychiatrist, used the term “attention-seeking” to describe her behaviour.

Last October Miss Larkin, a baker and craft maker from Salford, wrote a blog for an NHS website saying she had been given a new 'sense of purpose and focus' through taking part in discussions on improving mental health care as a member of the Greater Manchester Adult Mental Health Steering Group.

But the campaigner's own mental health had been deteriorating and just two months later she was found dead in woodland in Eccles following a sleepover at her mother's home."

 

Note from PDV!: You can read her post [here]. I know that Faye was incredibly loved within the community and she is very missed.
