From the outside I’m sure most of you know me as that smiley woman from the TV. And largely, I am. I love socialising, I love meeting new people and I love my work. I love to laugh. That’s me . But there are still days where I feel low. These low days look different for everyone – I personally go quiet, inwards, shut myself off. I’ve been really open about how I see a therapist, and how that was such a positive change in my life. That said, it was only through my recent BBC documentary, The Truth About Improving Your Mental Health that I was told I was depressed. Looking at my daily life, many would wonder how I could be ‘depressed’. But mental illness doesn’t work like that. It’s so easy to think there are people worse off than us and we have no right to feel sorry for ourselves. But that thought process alone can be really dangerous, and lead to bigger problems. Mental illness can strike anyone at any time - no matter your age, gender or race.

Alex Salmond will not now appear before a Holyrood committee on Wednesday after some of his evidence in a dispute with the devolved administration and the SNP was redacted from the parliament's website. Some 474 words appear to have been removed from the former first minister's evidence, which was published on Monday evening. Earlier, his lawyer David McKie said the redactions had caused "significant surprise and concern". He also said Mr Salmond is "entitled" to have his evidence published, adding: "If any aspect of it is removed, it compromises his oral evidence." Mr Salmond has offered to appear on Friday, pending legal discussions. Advertisement The politician has accused officials in the Scottish government and the SNP of a "malicious and concerted effort" to damage his reputation - "even to the extent of having me imprisoned".
