From people who came through it

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was planning for when we are gone. I picked up the guitar again. Bit by bit it comes back. xโ€

  • โ€œI was sure I'd nevre feel normal again. I was wrong. Ask for a double appointment if you can, it changed things for me. Keep going, even slowly.โ€

  • โ€œNot sure if this makes sense. I'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 especially strong. I had to stop googling. It made everything worse.โ€

  • โ€œIn 2023, that was me. Respite once a month. That was my life. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back. Keep going, even slowly.โ€
