As a 36-year-old woman, I have been struggling with my mental wellness and dependency on substances for a while. It has been a challenging road, but I am determined to turn things around. I have been reaching out for help and exploring different mental health and substance use services to find the support I need. It’s been tough, but I am finally starting to see a glimmer of hope. I want to encourage anyone else going through a similar struggle to not give up. There are people and resources out there that can make a difference. Let’s keep pushing forward and supporting each other in this journey towards better mental health and wellbeing. We can do this!
