I have counselor that talks to me over the phone everyday, she helps with me with my anxiety and paranoid issues, she really understands me, its really good to have a support team with you along the way to your recovery. My program is High Point Partial Care i been with them for 3 threes years i like it there, i have good friends that also have mental illness, we talk about our problems and share our feelings. Its good to have a network of friends to support you along the way. I hopes guys have a similar thing going on for you too.

Don’t worry theres programs out there, just do some research online, Mental Illness programs. Its good to have someone to talk to about your issues your having. Its like a release.

I hope I can get my support system back soon. Without therapy I feel a bit directionless. Also with covid seeing/keeping in contact with friends is difficult

I have a therapist that I see every other week. He’s great. I also have a psychiatrist that I see every 3 months or so. I have my mom that I talk to at home and I journal. Journaling really helps me.

I have a pdoc, therapist, and case manager. I do one-on-one psychotherapy for 30 minutes each week, and I go to a weekly group therapy. I only see the pdoc as needed though.

I have a mental health nurse. I’m eligible for talk therapy but won’t do it as I will be starting work after the Lockdown.

I have some people I talk to sometimes. Not often though.

I have also got my family.
