"A life free from abuse"

About: Lives Lived Well - Mackay

(as a service user),

I was in an abusive relationship and for the past three years I have been learning how to live a life free from abuse. This has involved being in other abusive relationships. I have learnt there is a direct connect between abuse and substance abuse/mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. 

Lives Lived Well have been essential in my survival and recovery.
