Gemma Porter, a 35-year-old mother from Manchester, experienced postpartum psychosis after the birth of her son, leading her to believe she was living in a real-life version of 'Squid Game'. Despite having no prior mental health issues, she faced severe depression during her pregnancy and began suffering from delusions after four months of caring for her newborn and his four-year-old brother. Initially believing she was Jesus with healing powers, her condition worsened to thoughts of being human trafficked. After being sectioned and diagnosed with postpartum psychosis, she is now recovering, taking antipsychotic medication, and attending support groups. Gemma emphasizes that postpartum psychosis is more common than people realize and wants to raise awareness for other mothers facing similar struggles. She describes her recovery journey as transformative, stating she is now 'smashing life'.
