The speaker, who was raised to suppress their emotions, had been struggling with PTSD and suicidal thoughts due to the loss of their daughter in 1990 and their brother in 2009. They had isolated themselves and were researching suicide methods. However, their life changed when they were referred to James' Place. The welcoming and non-clinical environment of James' Place made them feel safe and comfortable enough to open up about their problems. Through therapy, they were able to regain their self-esteem and control over their thoughts. They also received a safety plan and were directed to other helpful services. The speaker credits James' Place for their improved outlook on life, and they are now looking forward to their first holiday abroad at the age of 61.
