When Aidan was fifteen years old he became very anxious and depressed after a health scare. He had convinced himself that he was suffering from a brain tumour after weeks of headaches and feeling ill. At the time he was also doing his GCSE’s, which added to the stress he was feeling. ‘Every day I was crying, I had stress headaches and I was constantly thinking about being ill. I didn’t want to tell my friends and family as they were all really busy and I didn’t want to add my problems to their own.’
