How the right support can help

What young people and families say about their experience with Teenage Mental Health

"I stopped running from myself and started running toward help."

James Mitchell, Age 17, student

"As a mum I do not have the words to describe how grateful I’m for everything you have done for her and for guiding me when needed. All the staff at Teenage Mental Health was always so kind and friendly with us. When we started this journey I was so desperate to not see her the way she was but today she is a different child."

Daniella

"To everyone at TMH you’re all amazing. Thank you for everything! YAY we made it! Layla and Debbie Thank you for being nice and helpful."

Samuel - Age 6

"The panic attacks that controlled my life became something I could manage. That shift changed everything." I sleep better now. I actually want to be here.

Sophie - Age 15, student

"I want to thank you for the time L***** has been with you from a client and parent perspective. We were always treated like we were not just clients but friends."

Hayley

"Thank you for everything! For being there when no other agency was, for helping us fight for the help needed, for never giving up on L****, for being a huge reason she’s still with us today. Forever grateful."

Jayne

"Thank you for always being there to put a smile on my face, both before and after sessions. It has always given me confidence to see the smiles on your faces when I walk through the door on a Monday."

Tilly

"I have to say that your work with B** has been wonderful. We have seen the return of our sweet, caring, loving child who has developed the courage and confidence to move towards the life they want to lead as they grow up. I just don’t have the words to express my deepest gratitude to you for how you have worked so positively with them, teaching and enabling strategies for them to cope with the rigours, pitfalls and slings and arrows that life can throw at us. It makes me tearful writing this. It has been such a challenging and traumatic time and I truly am deeply, deeply thankful for your work with B**."

Helen

"We just wanted to express my biggest thanks for everything you have done for I*** over the past few years. We are so proud of the progress she has made and continually pinch ourselves to appreciate fully that she is: A. still around. B. healthy. C. closer than she has been to all of us in the family. You really have brought I**** back from a very dark place, and she is now better able to navigate life and to enjoy the freedom to live in her unique way. A thank you is never going to be enough, but here it is anyway, both Damian and I thank you from the depths of our hearts."

Siobhan and Damian

"A huge thank you to you all. You are all exceptional people with the ability to make people feel comfortable at a time when things feel very hard. I have really appreciated your kindness and humour and want to wish you all every joy and success that life can offer. We may see you again but in the meantime thank you and best wishes."

Vanessa

"Recovery isn't a straight line, but it's worth every step of the journey."
