With the recent world events and stressful news bulletins, Heads Together is rebuilding human strength and dignity.
We are all carrying around huge amounts of stress and with the incredible revelations of Prince William and Harry, we are on our way to recognising our own mental health issues – and recognition is well on the way to recovery.
Both of our Royals have been talking about their own personal issues, losing their beloved mother at such vulnerable ages, and being in the spotlight and forced to bury their feelings due to Royal protocol.
We do not need to be part of a Royal Family to be told to hide our feelings, and ‘get on with it’. It happened in my own home as a child where my militant father couldn’t cope with any outpouring of grief or emotion, and felt it necessary to deal a heavy hand where human feelings were concerned. Especially with my brother, as ‘real men don’t cry’ – and he was just told to deal with it quietly.
So we may feel that with recent World events that we have taken several steps back in our evolvement, but now ‘Heads Together’ https://www.headstogether.org.uk/ are giving us some sort of hope for the future. It certainly seems that there is light at the end of the tunnel in a World where Trump and the Kardashians have recently taken centre stage.
As someone who has suffered from acute anxiety, I am beginning to voice that condition without feeling I am being judged. Observing the Princes and Heads Together, I recently stopped taking the medication I was prescribed by my Doctor, as my partner told me that when I was taking them it was difficult to communicate with him.
I chose to live and not become one of the living dead, which was what I was turning into. So Heads Together has already made a difference to my life.
My anxiety is still there but far less than it was before because I feel it is allowed, not swept under the carpet. So because I am not pushing it away, I am staying with the feelings and dealing with them properly.
Most psycho analysts will tell you that if you ‘feel the fear and do it anyway’ (a good book to read) – your recovery process will speed up. If you treat your emotions as living entities, and talk to them as if they are alive (they are), they will feel nurtured and not attack you, you can then live with them side by side. There is no shame in living with any of the human conditions that affect mental health, as long as you admit they are there.
It was a great lesson for me to learn that, and I can honestly say that I am coping with the pressures of everyday life so much more than when I chose to bury my head and my emotions in the sand.
I hope by my own admissions of ‘mental health’ issues, that I have managed to help even one individual suffering from similar struggles – it will then be all worthwhile.

How many times do we hear of women hanging their lives on men who cheat on them or inflict abuse them physically or mentally. Such is the lot of women, or so we are led to believe in novels, movies and some of the more tacky tabloids.
But come on ladies, let’s stop being victims and take look at the ‘bad girls’ throughout history who have ensnarled men by our wily means, only to entrap and then devour them. Similar in style to the black widow spider who entices the male into the web, has her wicked way with him and then mercilessly kills and kicks him out.
Men too are addicted to bad behaviour, and the old adage ‘treat em mean keep em keen’ also applies to us.
A recent television series The Affair depicted a seemingly helpless female working as a waitress in a café, played by the charismatic Ruth Wilson, who cleverly entices a formerly happy married man away from his wife and three kids to embark on a liaison dangereuse which ultimately destroys all of their lives.
The manipulative Anne Baxter in the old movie All About Eve with Bette Davies, when she sets out to usurp her best friend’s career and relationship with her divisive plans to destroy her marriage and entice her husband into her bed.
Cleopatra was a great example of female power and entrapment, managing to seduce and win the most powerful man on the Planet at that time, Mark Anthony. Following Caesar’s assassination, Mark Antony had reached the heights of power. But he completely neglected his empire for a life of decadent seduction with his mistress, Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt. Torn between love and duty, Antony’s military brilliance deserted him, and his passion lead both to their tragic end.
We have seen it within our own Royal family within the last Century, with the alluring Wallis Simpson, who completely captivated the heart of the late King Edward VI, causing him to abdicate the thrown as he couldn’t live without her. Rumour has it that this was the last thing on her agenda, but had to play it out after his legendary speech addressing a nation was broadcast to the World.
I have it in my own circle of friends, where one lady constantly has the upper hand, and endlessly taunts her tolerant husband who willingly goes along with all of her demands, and I sometimes cringe as she cracks the whip on her devoted partner. But he is besotted and even appears to enjoy it!
Sometimes we have to cut the victim talk and examine our own power to attract and ultimately destroy the opposite sex – it is not all down to men and certainly not all one sided. I rest my case.
