I had no idea. This is the response I hear time and time again from family when they are told that a relative or partner is taking ketamine. I work in a service for patients who have emerging severe mental illness and many of them have used drugs such as ketamine which has triggered psychosis or other serious mental health problems. In A&E, I have frequently seen young people brought in having taken too much of the drug and fallen unconscious.

You might imagine that having reached the pinnacle of your career, you’d be satisfied. A life of plaudits and comfort awaits you. Surely now you are happy with your lot. But so often this isn’t what happens. Sir Bradley Wiggins won Olympic gold medals on the track at the Athens, Beijing and Rio de Janeiro Games, and also won the road time trial at London 2012, two weeks after becoming the first British rider to win the Tour de France.

There will be a good few I am sure, who, hearing about the alleged rift in the Beckham household, will be able to sympathise with David and Victoria. Family fallings out are horrible but also common. In fact, research by charity Stand Alone found that one in five families in the UK will be affected by estrangement at some point. The Beckhams are said to have been left ‘heartbroken’ by a rumoured estrangement from their eldest son, Brooklyn, and his wife of three years, Nicola Peltz.

Remember the pre-digital age – a time before tablets, smartphones and TV streaming services? It was only 25 or so years ago, but it feels like a lifetime. Those who’ve known no other life must wonder how we all coped. Well, better than we do today, I’d argue. There’s no doubt the online world has given us much, but it has also caused problems that we could never have foreseen.

If you haven’t watched the Disney+ documentary about Freddie Flintoff’s horrific car crash while filming Top Gear in 2022, then I’d really recommend it. It’s an edifying lesson in how an individual copes with something truly traumatic and the complex feelings and emotions which swirl around such an event. Freddie said he experienced PTSD and anxiety after the accident, in which he nearly died and I have to say, I’m not surprised.
