Were you watching in the early days or did you discover it later (or even recently)?
If My Mad Fat Diary means something special to you, it'd be lovely to hear from you, either below or in an Ask. Memories of the show, favourite cast members, outfits, songs, or scenes, and the fanfics or fan art you loved.

My Mad Fat Diary (2013 - 2015)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
TW: This series includes self esteem issues, depression, self-harm, and suicide. Please be aware of triggers prior to starting this show.
It’s hard to review things I already appreciated in my adolescence and remain unbiased, but this series holds a soft spot in my heart. There are only a few series that left me craving more episodes after their intended series that actually landed. I love this cast and every vital part they play.
The acting is tremendous, and left me in tears on many occasions. At it’s core, it is a young woman navigating the new world beyond her mental illness; but it is so much more than that. Friendship, family, renewal, alcohol, school, parties, illness, breakdowns, breakups, and breakthroughs.
I have even used the advice of the snarky psychiatrist Kester to advise myself through hard patches. There is so many things of value in this series, and I am forever appreciative of that.
This is worth a watch, but only if you:
Can tolerate heavy storylines around mental health
Appreciate the Cool Britannia aesthetic and it’s many playlists
Titles similar to this:
Skins (2007-2013) (You knew this was coming! Similar themes throughout, but a more dramatic, darker tone)
Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012) (similar aesthetic, heavy themes of abuse and depression, drama)
Awkward (2011) (Comedy surrounding an misunderstanding that gives a highschooler the nickname of “Suicide Girl”)

WITCHCRAFT
1st Wand: Aspen, Unicorn Hair, 12 inches, reasonably supple
Wand-quality aspen wood is white and fine-grained, and highly prized by all wand-makers for its stylish resemblance to ivory and its usually outstanding charmwork. The proper owner of the aspen wand is often an accomplished duellist, or destined to be so, for the aspen wand is one of those particularly suited to martial magic. Aspen wand owners are generally strong-minded and determined, more likely than most to be attracted by quests and new orders; this is a wand for revolutionaries.
2nd Wand: Red Oak, Unicorn hair, 11 inches, solid
You will often hear the ignorant say that red oak is an infallible sign of its owner’s hot temper. In fact, the true match for a red oak wand is possessed of unusually fast reactions, making it a perfect duelling wand.
