Leanne Warr is writing a book on depression and is reaching out to others for their own stories. The former journalist said while her depression was diagnosed a long time ago, her confidence to write a book about it is something that has taken time to grow. "Years ago someone said to me "You have such an interesting story, why don't you talk about it and write a book". Warr also wants to tackle the stigma that "everyone gets it from time to time" and one of the chapters in the book deals with depression myths. Warr would like to speak with more people about depression and encourages people to email her at: leanne.warr.nz@gmail.com
