A conversation with journalist Amy, who suffers from anxiety and depression, and has found an usual solution to help her cope – track cycling
Journalist Amy Sedghi has struggled with her mental health since her teenage years. Here, in a frank and open conversation with Ellie, she talks about the different techniques she has used to help her manage her anxiety and depression.
When Amy decided to check out the local velodrome during a visit to her parents, something clicked – even though she spent most of the session on the flat bit in the middle. Over the intervening years, Amy’s confidence and love for cycling has grown – and it’s become a tremendous help in how she manages her anxiety. She explains how this usual method works for her, why everyone should try track cycling and how her own local velodrome, Herne Hill, is a fantastic, welcoming place for women (and men) at all levels.
