Marianne

During the City Council meeting, Malibu Mayor Marianne Riggins asked for a report of crimes committed in fire-affected areas in response to safety concerns raised by residents.

If 29-year-old Marianne Barry doesn't take the contraceptive pill each day, she could have symptoms of severe anxiety or even suicidal thoughts.

"I want to have a child, but I also want to be sane," said Marianne.

Marianne, a teaching assistant from Cardiff, spent eight years going back and forth to her GP before seeking a private diagnosis two years ago, when her symptoms became overwhelming.

Before she was prescribed the contraceptive pill, Marianne's symptoms would re-appear each month, which she said left her in a constant cycle of anxiety.
