From people who came through it

  • β€œIf you are just starting this, I am sorry. The first thing I want to say is that it is not your fault. The shame is heavy, but you don't have to carry it alone. Get advice early, even if it feels embarrassing. And try to hold on to the small things, like a cup of tea with a friend or a game of chess. It doesn't fix the big problem, but it helps you keep going.”

  • β€œIf you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy and the first few months were the worst of my life and but I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. Get a letter from your doctor if your health is affected, it moved us up the list. Go slowly.”

  • β€œIf you're facing eviction, get on the city list early. They take forever. Keep your phone charged. Ask for help. I swim to stay sane. Find your swim. It's scary but you can get through. I'm still here.”

  • β€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are two years ago. Landlord selling, every single day. Now I sleep most nights. It's slow, but it does come back. Sending love.”
