Using my experience to help othershttps://www.google.com/adsense/new/u/0/pub-3691500166505297/privacymessaging

The best decision I made in my life was to use my experience of mental health issues to help others experiencing the same.  Definitely, studying welfare studies gave me the right qualifications to do so. To this day, I still practice the skills I learned studying welfare studies.  I wanted to give people the support that I had lacked when I was first unwell.   Nobody told me my rights as an inpatient  , but legally, they were meant to. I did not learn what a peer support worker was until a few years later, and right from the get-go, I knew I was destined to become one. I think the whole experience made me a stronger,  wiser, compassionate, and empathic person. It was the road I was destined to travel.. I regret nothing. The journey has been rich and rewarding.  I now get to spend my time writing ✍️ a blog and books about my life experience.  Life is all about the journey, not the destination.
