From people who came through it

  • โ€œA note for the next person. I was in the same place in 2022. I remember avoiding phone calls like it was yesterday. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. One day at a time.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. I remember when a racing heart that I was sure was my heart, like it was yesterday. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It changes. It really does.โ€

  • โ€œIf you've just found this place, this time last year I was exactly where you are. Checking the door lock, every single day. I got a new job this spring. Hang on.โ€

  • โ€œWhen it first starts, you might think you are just tired. That is how it was for me. But if your stomach is in knots every morning and you avoid the phone and cry in the toilets, that is not tired. That is something else. And it is not a weakness in you. I am not going to tell you it goes away quickly. For me, it has not. But I am not crying in the work toilets anymore. I am still here, and I am learning to ask for help. You can too. Start small. One phone call, one appointment. That's enough for today.โ€
