"How I found the day program"

About: Lives Lived Well – Wollongong (Day Program)

(as a service user),

From the situation that brought me here to where I am at now, Lives Lived Well day program has actually helped me turn my life around and find myself again. The facilitators are so warm, compassionate and beyond competent which allows you to get over any nervousness which is normal of course starting something that felt hopeless every time I tried on my own. As an individual and part of a group it has been amazing. Everyone has their own experiences and much shared in common it’s been great to meet the people I have met.

On the last day I felt a great sense of achievement, healing and recovering as well as the tools to apply to the future which I felt an excitement and readiness for as I have missed for a long time. I felt like I can reconnect with the people I care about, the community and life in general. I have plans and goals and so much to be excited about one day at a time and in the everyday moments. It’s an empowering course with lots of potential for growth in the most positive way which is what they’re all about.

Dear cubesf65,

Thank you for sharing your experience at the Wollongong Day Program. I know how passionate the staff are and am so pleased that you were able to benefit from their wisdom. It's wonderful that you described the program as empowering; it means that you put the work in, to get everything you could out of it. You should congratulate yourself.

Keep your toolbox close while you meet your life goals and always reach out if you need additional support.

Keep up the great work.

Regards,

Lara
