Hello All

Hello everyone, I'm Gemma. I live in Scotland, recently moving back to my hometown of Milngavie after spending a few years further up north in Tyndrum and also some time in England in the Greater Manchester area. I recognise a few names on here, I think some have registered on my own site or I've seen them on various support forums. I look forward to chatting with everyone :)
 
It's fantastic to see you here, @Gemma, I love your work on your site and I see you posting from time to time on the XF forums (I go by Static-xbox there, a bit of a lovable idiot :D)
 
Do you also suffer from mental health issues? If I may ask? Since being a styling goddess is like the coolest thing on the forum right now :)
 
Hi, Gemma. Welcome. :)

I think I was going to join your site but was too nervous.

I've suffered from severe depression in the past and once you have I don't think it ever fully "leaves" you. I still have some issues with sleep and lack of energy and there are periods when I shut off from everything but just now I'd say my mental health is fairly normal.
