I had spent a lot of time in hospital when I was unwell.
All my friends and family dropped off and I’d stopped going out of the house. I was pretty miserable.
The only people I used to see were a nurse from the hospital and a doctor once a month.
When I met the Recovery Program worker, she asked questions about me. She didn’t just ask about my medication and what was going on in my head.
She made me feel like a real person.
We started talking about all the things I could do in my life. Then we actually went and had a go at doing them!
I still have some bad days, but I feel more on top of things now.
I haven’t been to hospital for over a year and I am getting out of the house more.
I’m doing some volunteering and looking at enrolling in a TasTAFE course. I have a couple of friends I catch up with most weeks. There’s heaps more stuff I want to start doing now.
