From people who came through it

  • โ€œIf you've just found this place, I was in the same place in 2022. It was a Facebook group in another time zone and I couldn't see past it. I've started painting again. One day at a time.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. About three years ago, that was me. Back then, a condition only 300 people in the country have. I laugh properly again.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. A genetic test that took two years, and I couldn't see past it. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back.โ€

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. It was flying to a specialist and I couldn't see past it. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back. Be gentle with yourself.โ€
