From people who came through it
“To whoever needs this: I was where you are in 2022. I remember hearing about family news secondhand like it was yesterday. I got a new job in April. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.”
Yesenia from Arequipa · been through family estrangement“Please be getnle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. I started saying no to things and it made a big difference. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”
Aaliyah from Columbus · been through family estrangement“I've been there. For me it was a few years back. I remember when my grandkids I have never met, like it was yesterday. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It changes. It really does. Sending love.”
Salvatore from Parma · been through family estrangement“If you're scared right now, I get it. About three years ago, that was me. Christmas is the hardest. That was every day. I laugh properly again. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.”
