From people who came through it

  • โ€œI'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 especailly strong. I keep a list of good days on my phone so I can see them when it's bad.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€

  • โ€œPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder and ask for a double appointment if you can, it changed things for me so and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ€
