I don’t know about you, but I’ve been struggling in the dark for far too long. It took an exhausting amount of time, research, internal work, understanding and misdirection, before I finally broke through that icy surface. Faced with roadblocks, stop signs and general all round confusion, I was swimming in a pool of diagnoses and getting more lost as time went on. But here’s the thing….the answers were in me, the whole time. I just needed to trust myself, listen to what my body is telling me, and I began to understand myself, better than any GP, professional or otherwise. It all starts with YOU!

This website is for YOU, to help you easily access, all in one place, the helpful resources, support and help you need to swim, rather than drowning on your own. Why, you ask? Here’s why. I scoured the internet, sitting up until 5am, searching for symptoms, meaning in my struggles, the ‘Why’s?’ And what I found? Contradictions, positive AND negative ideals, and even more confusion. The amount of negativity surrounding mental health issues was terrifying. The amount of brutality I came across, sent me into even more of a depression. Things got darker, and I even started to believe the negativity. The opinions of other people. THAT is dangerous. That can hold down someone who’s already drowning but trying to find a way out. This realization, that you can look for support, and often come across exactly the opposite, hit me hard. Hard enough to want to prevent ANYONE from going through the same and meeting the same negative opinions. Sure, you will have to face your own opinions, your own demons, which can be hard enough at times, without adding to it from elsewhere. The wrong resources, the bias opinions from people who “just don’t get it.”

So….here it is. Your one stop shop for the positive resources you need, to get better. Not feeding into any negativity, stigma or opinions that will keep you down. Whatever your symptoms, this site is here to help you shine your light to find your own way out of the darkness 🔦

Grab your light, hold onto the glimmer, that spark of hope you still have in you, deep down in the darkness….and lets go 💕
