“Se estás a começar, o meu conselho é: não tentes resolver tudo de uma vez. A dívida e a doença juntas são muita coisa. Fala com alguém de confiança, nem que seja só para não carregares tudo sozinho. E não tenhas vergonha de pedir ajuda especializada. O médico de família não chega. Eu ainda estou a aprender, mas já percebi que esconder a cabeça na areia só piora.”
“I'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't. But you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong. Cold water on my face when the panic starts. Weird but it works. God willing it gets easier.”
“For anyone new to this: I was right where you are a few years back. For me it was a hospital stay last year. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back.”
“I was right where you are two years ago. For me it was sleep as my early warning sign. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back. Be gentle with yourself.”
