"Dealing with cravings"

About: Lives Lived Well

(as a service user),

I was released from jail after serving several months ago, scared of how I was going to cope being back out with the drug scene as I’ve been involved in it for many years.

I started seeing Vicky from lives lived well and she has been a delight I had one hiccup at the start of my release before seeing Vicky but not since. She has helped me with coping with my anxiety and taught me to live in the presence, that I don’t always have to be in fight mode, that I am safe. I haven’t used since seeing her, I am so grateful for her service and the clean life she has helped me with so much. And I know that if I see myself in a dark place I’m not scared to contact her I never felt judged. She is great I recommend her to anyone.
