"My mental health and wellbeing journey"

About: Telford STaRS

(as a service user),

After being stuck in a cycle of a lot of addictions for 25 years on and off and bad self condeming thoughts from childhood leading to feeling hopeless, unworthy and having no self respect, decided to give the mental health and wellbeing service a try thru stars.   

Being given helpful tools and assignments each week and with support and putting hard work in started to see results, looking at how I'd constantly condemned myself, although valid in some cases, seeing these thoughts and practicing recognising them and tackling them, replacing them I've made alot of progress. 

With my faith in Jesus which lines up exactly with Debbie's tools and practices, I have managed to kick all my addictions in a few months and come off of methodone in a month and a half, which I have never managed before unless checked into a rehab facility, and upon release would slip straight back into addictions again. 

This is a miracle for me, walking free of all addictions and feeling hopeful about the future and stronger mentally like never before.  Thankyou Jesus and Mental Health and Wellbeing Practioner Debbie, and Caitlin Keyworker.
