Helen Flanagan thanks fans for their 'lovely' messages after revealing she was diagnosed with psychosis following Scott Sinclair split


The actress, 33, revealed she was diagnosed with psychosis after suffering a 'bad reaction' to her ADHD medication.

Posting alongside a smiling selfie, Helen continued: 'I felt really not great in my head over Christmas and I didn’t really feel that much different when I took the kids away for new year. 'I felt terrible, so I was due my theatre tour which I was excited about so when I came back from holiday I thought it was best for me to take some medication so I’d feel better and be able to cope better with being a working single mum of three and I was emotionally struggling with the break up from the father of my kids.' Meanwhile Helen has also been open about her previous health struggles, after she spoke out about her battle with postnatal depression , OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) and intrusive thoughts, last October.
