When I first got to Redwood 2 I felt alone and unsupported for the first 2 months. Eventually I got a 1:1 with Nurse Sue and she helped me to be able to ask my consultant what I need (mood stabiliser).
Also Nurse Morrigan was really supportive and helped me through some trauma stuff. She has helped me write two letters which have been really useful. Sue and Morrigan are always there for me and understand me. I am very grateful.
I have come a long way since I came to Redwood 2 from self harming severely, regularly, to being 3 weeks + self harm free. I couldn't have done it without Morrigan's support. I am so glad the staff took the glass and razor blades from me because now I am almost 2 months cut-free.
