From overwhelmed to coping

I was anxious, depressed and overwhelmed by the pressures of family life. I felt like I had to carry everything on my own, and it left me exhausted, ashamed and unsure where to turn. I needed help to cope and to feel more like myself again.

The support gave me a safe space to talk – in my first language, and helped me find practical ways to manage day-to-day struggles, and reminded me that it is okay to ask for help.

Since then, I have been coping better, speaking up more about what I need, and finding everyday life a little easier to manage. Thank you.
