Despite these challenges, Eden considers herself fortunate. She reflected, “I’m so lucky. I have this sweet child. I have a husband who loves me. What’s wrong with me?’ And nobody told me what was wrong with me. At that time going to a psychiatrist, people didn’t do it. You just healed yourself.”

She also encourages others to seek help when needed. “Now you go get help when you feel that bad. When you can’t move or don’t want to do anything, go and get help,” she added.
