Nichola says when her daughter, Beth, had a stroke the health professionals who assessed her did not look at Beth's life prior as a young person.
She says "I think the biggest gap that we noticed, and I've worked in youth mental health alot, was Beth and her past medical history was never really discussed. Beth had already been diagnosed with anxiety and depression. There wasn't a conversation about that. Even though they were giving her medication every day".
The biggest challenges were the hidden challenges with her mental health. And then huge anxiety after a life changing moment.
