I have learned to believe in myself

Posted By abigsavage

"I have learned to believe in myself"

About: South Eastern Health & Social Care Trust / Condition Management Programme

(as a service user),

I have been working with Ann for a number of weeks taking CBT. Her techniques and skills that she has worked with me to develop have been invaluable. I have learned to believe in myself and trust my own experience. It has enabled me to realise my situation is not unusual and can be managed.

So whether its anxiety, low mood, self doubt or other issues, we have worked together to help me develop the life skills to both understand and accept them. She always encouraged me to recognise that I am 'awesome' and after my sessions with Ann, I am beginning to believe this!

Dear abigsavage

Thank you so much for sharing your experience of the Condition Management Programme. I am delighted that you have learned to believe in yourself and have developed techniques to support you in the future. You really capture what we aim to provide; an individual tailored Programme to address your health issues and I have shared your story with Ann and the rest of the team.

Your positivity and energy which come from reading your story will hopefully encourage and support other people with similar experiences to access the Programme in the future.

It is your learning, testing out of techniques and practice which have you enabled you to have control and you have developed the ability to manage the anxiety, low mood, self doubt. Ann has been your guide and supporter on this journey but it is you who has made the changes, all the very best for the future.

Best wishes

Jane
