I Was In Debt, My Husband Was Leaving Me And I Tried To Kill Myself. Here's The 1 Thing That Changed My Life.
I woke up in the ICU with tubes down my throat. My life had been saved, but I wasn't relieved — I was devastated. April is National Hope Month. But is hope real? Or is it just a beautiful lie we cling to? My husband was leaving me. I had lost the privilege of raising my 16-year-old son, who moved across the country to live with extended family to finish high school. I was drowning in $150,000 in debt from a manic episode spending spree. I hadn't worked outside the home in 20 years. My bipolar disorder had not only driven me to attempt suicide, but had stolen my ability to perform daily functions like shower, change my clothes, or get out of bed. Rock-bottom felt endless. Hope felt impossible. But hope is not a feeling. Hope is not a wish. It does not guarantee rescue, nor does it erase pain. Hope dares us to believe — not that everything will be OK, but that something could be. As a suicide survivor, I know the razor-thin edge between hope and hopelessness. My hopelessness led me to the brink of death. Hope was what made the doctors fight to bring me back. Hope redirected me from a blind alley to an open door, which appeared through Sharon, a store manager who took a chance on me when no one else would and gave me my first job. That opportunity set me on the path to repaying my debts through hard work, negotiating with creditors, selling my jewelry, and thanks to the support of my husband. Hope rarely roars in. More often, it shows up in the quiet, ordinary form of another person. Rebekah, my therapist, met me in my bipolar darkness — not to drag me out, but to teach me how to find the light myself. My family, once broken, began to heal with therapy and time. I remember the first time my son and I laughed together years after my hospitalization. It was a small sound, but it felt like a crack of light in the darkness. The son I thought I had lost is now married and about to earn his master's degree from the University of Colorado. He used to block my number. Now, he calls me late at night just to talk. Hope did not erase my struggles, but it gave me the strength to fight. When my husband told me he was leaving, it took every ounce of hope to face him — not just to ask him to stay, but to fight for our marriage, even though I knew it was a long shot. This hope wasn't a sudden revelation or a dramatic turning point; it was a series of small, deliberate choices — made over and over again — to keep going. In the end, it paid off. Today, our marriage stands on solid ground, and is filled with happiness. As organizer and prison abolitionist Mariame Kaba reminds us, hope is a discipline. This is what we so often misunderstand about hope. It is not baseless optimism or a passive belief that things will get better. It is not waiting for someone to save you. Hope is a decision. A fight. A radical act of defiance against despair. We live in a world where mental illness is still widely misunderstood, leaving millions to suffer in silence and without hope. Due to stigma, around 60% of people with mental illness never seek out the treatment they need. I was one of them. For over two decades, I believed that if I was strong enough, I should be able to 'fix' myself. I believed that asking for help meant failure. That lie nearly killed me, and I'm terrified for the millions who still believe asking for help is a sign of weakness. The road to recovery is not just long — it can feel relentless. It's filled with obstacles at every stage, and the sheer emotional labor of rebuilding your life. I have seen firsthand the power of hope in the lives of those who are struggling. I now stand in prisons, rehab programs, homeless shelters, and business organizations sharing my story, advocating for mental health care, and proving that even from the deepest despair, a life worth living can be built. Hope is getting out of bed when everything in you screams don't. Hope is showing up for therapy when you'd rather disappear. Hope is taking the smallest step forward — day after day — until one day, you realize you're no longer in the same place. So, if you feel like the odds are stacked against you; if you wonder whether hope is even possible; if you are still here, even in the smallest way — you are already fighting. That is enough. It has to be.

Rebekah Vardy could be new Old Firm WAG as Jamie may be heading to Glasgow
Jamie Vardy has been linked with a move to Scotland, with Rangers and Celtic both said to be keen - meaning Rebekah Vardy could be Glasgow's newest WAG. Jamie Vardy has bid farewell to Leicester City, the club he has been with for 13 years and is now ready for a new chapter at a new club. According to reports, the star could be heading up to Glasgow as both Celtic and Rangers are said to be interested. Vardy isn't only known for his antics on the pitch and is married to arguably one of the most famous WAGs ever, it's... Rebekah Vardy. Rebekah could be following in the footsteps of Helen Flanagan or Alex Curran if she swaps the title of being an English Premiership WAG for a Scottish Premiership one. The mum of five is well kent because of her marriage to Jamie, and also for being involved in a rather high profile recent celebrity court case. In 2019, Rebekah became embroiled in the 'Wagatha Christie' legal drama with fellow WAG Coleen Rooney. Coleen, who is married to football legend Wayne Rooney, famously executed an elaborate sting operation, suspecting someone was leaking stories from her private Instagram account to the press. The Scouse WAG meticulously restricted access to her posts to pinpoint the source of the leaks. Vardy, 43, has consistently refuted these claims, suggesting that her Instagram could have been hacked. She retaliated with a libel lawsuit against Rooney, claiming the viral accusation tarnished her reputation. However, during a session at The Royal Courts of Justice, it was determined that Vardy was ordered to fork out nearly £1.2million towards Coleen Rooney's legal fees. But now, Rebekah could be in for a fresh start up in Scotland if Jamie decides to make the move to the Scottish Premiership. Fellow Rangers legend Paul Gascoigne has previously said Vardy would score goals for fun at Ibrox. When asked about the possibility of Vardy joining Rangers, Gascoigne told Rangers are a tough team to play for. "They expect you to be winning every game. But I'm sure he'd score some goals up there. Easy, no problem. Especially because he's still got that pace." There's also been chat that Jamie could be heading for Celtic as former Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers is back. However until then, the Vardys have been celebrating Jamie's departure from his club and Rebekah shared the hefty booze bill from Jamie's blowout. She joked about the party-goers' wild antics, captioning the lengthy alcohol tally with a trio of chuckling emojis. On the extensive bar tab were 38 Tequilas, 66 Baby Guinnesses, 41 Jagermeisters, 52 shots of Grey Goose vodka, several flutes of Sancere wine, and a bevy of 'S*** house Specials' – a potent combo of vodka and Red Bull. The forward, 38, was celebrated for his remarkable run with Leicester City, boasting 200 goals across 500 matches, with Rebekah throwing him an extravagant surprise do. She joked about the party-goers' wild antics, captioning the lengthy alcohol tally with a trio of chuckling emojis. Sharing a snap of the bespoke cocktail list on Instagram, Rebekah also revealed a selection of Vardy-themed tipples, including an Electric Vardy, which is described as a spicy margarita. Further posts by Rebekah included images from the revelries, where she's seen embracing a suited-up Jamie, donning a chic red frock with complementary heels, amidst cheers from friends. The venue was decked out with blue and gold balloons and giant photos commemorating the Foxes legend. Jamie is poised to depart from the relegated outfit this summer, following rumours of an unexpected move to Crystal Palace. Despite being 38, he's not ready to retire just yet... next stop, Glasgow?
