In September 2022, I started being severely impacted by mental health challenges, I suffered from intrusive mental thoughts and I suddenly found myself in a reality I could never have envisioned for myself. Due to my illness, I was made redundant. Initially, I didn't even know how I could ask for help, so I only started receiving support in the last 6 months.
I now feel a lot better, and I'm focussed on surrounding myself with supportive and inspiring people. Beam has been incredibly supportive and knowing that there are people willing to help makes me feel less lonely. With their support, I finally feel more stable and confident.
In two years' time, I would love to afford my own place and achieve financial freedom by using my skillset in a career. With that in place, I can't wait to feel confident in my own skin and be who I am.
