What does it feel like to be pushing the boat forward and sinking it at the same time? To Justin, it felt like doom, dread, guilt and self-hate until he took the brave first step towards recovery with professional help and peer support.

 

Today, Justin perseveres in his healing journey by creating a safe space at the Resilience Collective, a Beyond The Label programme supported by Community Chest. The programme supports those with mental health struggles with peer support initiatives and provides a space where vulnerability is seen as a strength, not a weakness. His journey from a man grappling with his mental health struggles to a beacon of hope for others is a powerful reminder of the healing that comes when we dare to connect and support one another.
