"Anger management help from Thorneywood"

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

It started when I went into care, I was offered no help and just chucked into the deep end. My anger and self control just got worse and worse. I ended up fighting and getting arrested all the time, being involved with 'gang related' business.

Then the help from Thorneywood finally turned up. Although it took me to get arrested a lot of times before I was offered any help, the help I'm getting now helps me keep my head down even though I'm locked up at the minute, where there is a lot of oppurtunities to get into more trouble with more charges.
