“[It’s] such an important thing the show and all the charities are doing,” she said on Instagram afterward.
She continued: “We were inundated with women coming to the bus to talk about their issues and the more we speak about it the better and stronger we will become together.
“I had hormonal depression for a while during the perimenopause. It was horrific to the point of feeling suicidal. I’ve never even had anxiety in my life before other than for a specific reason (bullying or harassment).
“BUT this was in the years when women were meant to shut up and stay silent. Well I didn’t. I sought a doctor as I’d self diagnosed that the deep depression was linked to hormones.
“Go girls….we are in this together,” she concluded.
