I want to break down some of the stigma associated with mental illness.

I used to be pretty reckless. When I was a runner for a production company, I drove a massive 16 seater van. I was only 18. I mean I look young now, but then I looked about 12.

But I love New York. I used to set my alarm clock when I was there, and get up at 4am and get a coffee, just because I could.

I read in the paper that I'd slashed my wrists. But I didn't.

I'm a mum, so my wardrobe consists of sweaters and jeans. As long as I don't leave the house forgetting my jeans, I count that as a fashion success.

I know a lot of celebrity types go for Kabbalah and Scientology. But why pay 10 per cent of your earnings to someone when it's all common sense: treat others as you'd like to be treated yourself.

The more I read about feeding times, sleep times and waking-up times, the more inadequate and miserable I felt.
