    Hey @Creativeboy23. You have been really brave in reaching out to us.

    We can hear your conflicting feelings: you recognise this as a kind thing your brother did but it also brought up some painful memories. Is there anything which might help you whilst you are being reminded of these painful memories?

    Your feelings are valid. We can also hear how you would like some new clothes but are struggling with the cost of new clothes at the moment and you have been procrastinating purchasing new clothes.

    Is there a way you might be able to buy new clothes which are slightly more affordable? For example, I would often shop in Primark, sports shops and charity shops when I needed more affordable clothing. I recognise and appreciate that we are all different though :3

    @Creativeboy23 I just wanted to check in to see how you were doing? Like Laura said reaching out for support is a really brave step in itself <3

    Sorry to hear you've been experiencing painful memories. I wondered what you had tried to help you with those so far? Is it something you feel able to talk to anyone about or have you focussed more on coping techniques?

    Always remember we're here for you when you do need some support in the meantime.

    Hi @Creativeboy23 I noticed you mentioned about the app called Silvercloud. I have used that before in the past and I can say it can be super handy to write down all of your feelings and thoughts. They even got free courses on things such as anxiety and emotions on there too. I used it for six months and you would basically keep a journal of thoughts which would then be monitored and you would have someone who would support you and ask questions as to why you may be feeling a certain way. I hope you are doing okay at the moment <3.
