When I first started Foundations of Life, I was feeling very vulnerable. I had previously engaged in CGL/CRS and AA to address my issues with alcohol. I had just at this point left and acknowledged the relationship I was in was abusive and was feeling very lost. I am also in court proceedings due to this relationship and alcohol, and so the journey in recovery has been very difficult in trying to understand and deal with emotions sober.
Through Foundations of Life, I have learnt so much about myself and life in general and confirmed that not only were my feelings natural, but I am stronger than I had previously thought. I am a better person than I thought.
The topics were thought-provoking in a good way. The support from my peers and staff, Jo, Andrea, Emily & Arlene, were amazing, and I felt validated as a person.
I have now learnt that I can deal with difficult situations in life sober with the right people around me. Whatever happens from now on, I know I can deal with it correctly, and so I feel the future now looks promising.
I am more confident, content, and happy with just being me.
I am so happy that I did and completed the Foundations of Life programme. It has literally been a life-changing group for me personally, and I’ve met some truly amazing people who have now become good friends.
Friends of whom we value and support one another in and outside of the programme.
Thank you so much; it has been amazing.
