From people who came through it

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. In 2023, that was me. For me it was the thoughts come at night mostly. I wake up most days without that dread. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. xโ€

  • โ€œI was in the same place nearly four years ago. It was telling my sister was the hardest thing and I couldn't see past it. I've started painting again.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. In 2023, that was me. I remember a safety plan on my phone like it was yesterday. This morning I sang in the car. It's slow, but it does come back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ€

  • โ€œYou don't have to tell everyone. But tell someone. For me it was my sister. It was the hardest thing. But it made the thoughts a bit quieter. Have a plan. Mine is on my phone. Use it when you need to. The thoughts might be loud now. But they can get quieter. I'm not going to say it's easy. It's not. But you're still here. That counts.โ€
