    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    We're here with you @Siobhan, travelling can be so stressful and it's really hard with the costs of it adding up. I know you're feeling scared about travelling through London, just remember we're here with you and you can do this! Let us know when you're on your train and post here whenever you need to. I hope your appointment goes okay today <3
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Thank you @Aife <3

    I’m on my way home now. Wasn’t as bad as I thought Just a lot to do. By the time I get home. Would of travelled on 8 different trains, 2 buses and 2 taxis. I am so stressed. I have to go back Saturday. I should buy a rail card it might be cheaper.
    They was asking what support I’m getting now. I said I am seeing the crisis team for one week and then getting discharged. So they asked for their number I think to basically say I need more help than that

    It’s been an overwhelming few days :(
    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.
