I self referred to renew in March 2023 and started to work with my key worker Shawna in April. I was not sure at first what to expect from renew but I knew I wanted to address my cannabis use and debts. I was smoking daily and smoking £500 worth of cannabis daily.
I have been supported throughout by Shawna and she has been amazing she has a great way with words and doesn't believe in herself enough. She has been great and I am so thankful for everything. I am now 13 weeks and 2 days abstinent from cannabis.
I have had support for mental health and free legal advice. I felt listened to and was seen at a quieter renew which was better for me to attend. When I first started I was very emotional and couldn't last a full appointment. Now I am understanding myself more and sit and talk for a full hour. I have also had a job interview recently which is a massive thing for me to do. I still have other things which I need to achieve but I am getting there and moving forward
