The Sunday Times today published an article about J.K. Rowling, going deeper into the depression she once battled.

Mid-twenties life circumstances were poor and I really plummeted, said Rowling. The thing that made me go for help . . . was probably my daughter. She was something that earthed me, grounded me, and I thought, this isn’t right, this can’t be right, she cannot grow up with me in this state.

In the article, Rowling tells about her time being depressed, and the suicidal thoughts that bothered her while she was struggling to get better.

Mental health campaigners welcomed Rowling’s decision to speak publicly about her struggle with suicidal depression.
