Some are able to return to their old routines, but in the privacy of their bedrooms, the girls reveal their struggles.
"It's times when you kind of let your guard down a little bit and you try and enjoy yourself and then you feel guilty for feeling that way and you feel guilty for getting on with your life when other people can't." Niamh
Despite their darker days, some are trying to find inspiration for the future.
"It's kind of made me realise like life is short and I want to do stuff and I want to get out there." Amelia
