Help for disaster survivors in Ireland
From people who came through it
“Please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. Telling one person the full tuth helped me more than anything. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”
Jeremy D · been through disaster survivors“To whoever needs this: I was in the same place eighteen months ago. It was living with my in laws and I couldn't see past it. I got a new job in April. You get yourself back in pieces.”
Aulia M · been through disaster survivors“For anyone new to this: I was right where you are two years ago. The flood took the ground floor, and I couldn't see past it. I picked up the guitar again. x”
jayden.bass1979 · been through disaster survivors“Dear friend, I know the ground feels like it won't stop shaking. When the typhoon came and then the earthquake, I thought we would never feel safe again. But we are still here, living with family, fixing what we can. Take it from me, you don't have to do it all at once. Accept help. Keep talking. And if you can, find one small thing that makes you smile, like a rose in a pot. You will get through this.”
