turning my life around after long term illness
Monday, 29 October 2012 12:48 PM

I am a 45 year old divorced mum of one who''s had a long term mental illness. The bad news is that I haven''t worked full-time for over 20 years and am chemically dependent on meds - I have tried to withdraw many times but get a rebound effect when I try. I also had an emotionally neglectful & abusive upbringing which caused the mental illness. The good news is that I have been volunteering for over three years - have some admin, reception & cashiering experience and am intelligent, trustworthy, presentable and with good listening skills and able to learn.

I am looking for someone to help mentor me to turn things around and get out of the poverty and life trap which I find myself in.

I am very lucky to have found your website. Recently I wrote about a problem which I face very often.... There were 10 responses from 10 mentors. They have really explained to me and made me understand that I do not have any problem. Your services are wonderful and I am very much thankful to all of you.

I have been mentoring on HM for 18 months. I really enjoy it & hopefully I am helping other people. Recently I posted my my first 'request for a mentor'. I have been completely bowled over by the response. So many people taking their time & making the effort to offer constructive advice in a friendly polite manner. For me it completely validates the intent behind HM. It reminds me how many good, helpful people there are out there. Thanks for providing such a great service.
