Frankie Bridge became ‘convinced’ she had killed her child amid first-time mum anxiety:

Frankie Bridge has spoken out about her mental health issues, including one episode in which she believed herself that she had killed her kid accidently. Many people regard Frankie, who made her Loose Women panel debut in December of last year, as the epitome of confidence. However, not everything is as it seems, as Frankie has been open about her own personal mental health difficulties. Bridge highlighted one especially terrifying episode in her new book (Grow: Motherhood, Mental Health, and Me), in which a fleeting remark from a doctor was enough to convince her that she had accidently killed her eldest kid. Frankie reported a subsequent chat she had with her local pediatrician after bringing her son, Parker – now seven years old – for a chickenpox vaccination before he turned one, who informed her that she should have waited until after Parker’s first birthday to vaccinate him. According to Bridge, the remark caused a “total meltdown.” “My paranoia went into overdrive as well, and I became sure that I had murdered my child before he’d even had a chance to live,” she wrote. Parker, on the other hand, was never in risk; the vaccine would just be ineffective. Frankie admits to feeling like a “failure,” a “waste of space,” and “sure to disappoint my kids down” despite her doctor’s promises. Frankie, a passionate mental health campaigner, has been an ambassador for Mind, an English and Welsh mental health organisation, since 2016. Grow: Motherhood, Mental Health, and Me is her new book, which is available now.
