Personal Story 3

Ayaz

Ayaz 21, on using the Space for Sleep program

I would often cancel plans to see friends from college because I just couldn't find the energy to get out the house. It wasn't until I had been filling out the sleep diary for a few weeks that I realised how little I was actually sleeping. The program showed me how making small changes could have a big impact on the quality of my sleep.

Ella

Ella, 20, on using the Space from Anxiety Programme

When my counsellor first suggested an online programme, I was terrified! I thought my problems were just too big and that I wouldn't be able to cope with it all alone. I felt a little reassured when I realised that I would have a supporter to help me and guide me as I worked through the program.

Jo

Jo, 61, on using the Space from Stress Program

I went to see my physician for a check-up. He told me that my blood pressure was too high. I needed to find a better way to deal with the stress in my life. A therapist also worked in the clinic and spoke to me about SilverCloud. I really didn't see how it could help me. I didn't go back for a while but then my stress levels got worse and I decided to give it another shot.

Corinne, on using the Supporting an Anxious Child programme for her daughter Maya

When I first clicked on the My Child's Anxiety tool, I decided to skip over it. The idea of describing Maya's various anxieties and the circumstances around them felt overwhelming. I think I was worried that writing them out would make them more real. And then I would have to face up to how my difficult relationship with Maya's dad might have affected her. I eventually decided to go back and give the tool a try. I'm glad I did. I think I surprised myself. Getting it all out of my head and onto the page was actually a relief. Having everything written out made me feel more in control of it.
