"My story is about recovery from alcohol relapse with the help of counselling"

About: Lives Lived Well – Nowra (Nana Muru)

(as a service user),

I was struggling with a relapse with alcohol after a long period of sobriety. There had been a lot of external stressors and I fell back into using alcohol to cope.

I was filled with shame, guilt and regret and didn’t know where to turn. I’m a single parent so money is tight and I couldn’t find any help that I could afford.

Luckily, I found Nana Munu and was linked with a counsellor that was a great fit for me. We held twice weekly sessions that helped me cope wit some major changes in my life, as well as addressing past trauma and grief, so that I didn’t feel the need to turn to alcohol again. My counsellor is a sounding board, supporter and someone I trust to share any and all of my issues related to alcohol with.
