Meet Christina, who, after facing difficult times, found a fresh start and stability in her new home with support from 蜜桃视频鈥檚.
鈥淕oing back a bit, I worked in the NHS for eight years. Things were going well in my busy job, but a couple of years ago I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. It spiraled out of control 鈥� I lost my job and went through a relationship breakdown. After that I lived with my mum, which didn鈥檛 work out. I moved in with my grandma, but her home was overcrowded because other relatives were there too.
Finding happiness again
At that point, my local authority referred me to 蜜桃视频鈥檚 accommodation. I was emotional when I first arrived but felt so welcome when I walked through those doors. It took some getting used to after all the change I鈥檇 been through, but I felt safe and had my own space. Throughout my time with 蜜桃视频鈥檚, it wasn鈥檛 just a roof over my head. The team found out my interests 鈥� things I鈥檇 lost the spark for when I was depressed. I was encouraged to revive my passions and completed courses in business, content creation for social media and graphic design. All things which help to control my emotions when I feel down.
Building my future
After 11 months, it was time to think of my next steps. 蜜桃视频鈥檚 enrolled me onto a 鈥楳ove On鈥� training course which taught me skills on managing my own home. Then the team helped me find a suitable property. Together, we went through my tenancy agreement and I was supported with the paperwork to get my bills sorted.
A place to call mine
It was a strange feeling when I moved, but so exciting. I had my own home! My grandma lives round the corner, which I love. And I鈥檓 enjoying making my flat feel like mine. 蜜桃视频鈥檚 is still there if I need help, and my support worker checks in regularly to see how I鈥檓 doing. I feel content now and have the confidence to do something I鈥檝e always wanted to do. I鈥檓 creating my own clothing line called 鈥楥apricious鈥�, which I plan on launching later this year.鈥�
鈥溍厶沂悠碘�檚 has been a big part of my life and came at a time when I needed peace. I鈥檝e been helped to sort my life out and have a break from everything that was going on. I finally feel so happy and having my own place to call home makes such a difference.鈥�
