From people who came through it

  • โ€œPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. Joining a class gave me somewhere to be every Thursday. It helped. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here. God willing it gets easier.โ€

  • โ€œI was where you are a year and a half ago. The day centre closed, every single day. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. The bad days get further apart.โ€

  • โ€œI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason so it doesn't. But you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong and try not to make big decisions on the worst days. I learned that the hard way.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. A few years back, that was me. Back then, the only voice some days is the radio. Yesterday I booked a holiday. It doesn't stay this heavy. Be gentle with yourself.โ€
