  • โ€œI was where you are this time last year. It was the job centre appointment and I couldn't see past it. My kids say I'm back. The bad days get further apart.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are about three years ago. Applying to 60 jobs and two interviews, every single day. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. Bit by bit it comes back. xโ€

  • โ€œA note for the next person. I was where you are in 2022. For me, a Teams call at 9am and it was over. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Hang on.โ€
