Tim shares how he navigated depression, the importance of real connections, and how he coped with unexpected changes in his life. He also shares how he dealt with the sudden absence of communication with his daughter, Ashleigh, and his experience of depression following that.

More about Tim:

I’m a 40-year-old man with a 15-year-old daughter, a wife and two stepdaughters aged 11 and 14. I’ve been divorced and remarried.

My story as a father started in 2008 when my daughter was born 10 weeks early at just 2lb 12oz. Looking back, the next 5-6 years were horrific regarding Ashleigh’s health issues, balancing work and professional studies and significant levels of parental guilt (caused by the absence that society says men should have).

Today, I have only just learned how to really look after myself mentally. In short – talk and don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
