I wish to thank you for the wonderful advice
I wish to thank you for the wonderful advice that you and your other counselor, Kay, gave to me. I finally spoke with a close family friend who is an adult, and they helped nudge me to speak about my problem with my parents. We had a long conversation and have made plans to seek professional help for my condition. I feel a bit better now having my familys support. I'm happy that I made the choice to email your services. Thank you so very much for your kind words of encouragement. I am truly grateful!
Thanks so much for everything.
Hi, I took some of the counselors advice. I dropped some of my extra curricular activities. I feel alot less stress and since I've talked to my mom our relationship has gotten much better. Thanks so much for everything.

Thank you for saving my life.
I was just let out of inpatient today thanks to a mixture of you contacting my school and my boyfriend telling my counselor I was suicidal. Thank you. You've reopened a path for me which I've never seen before. Things are going to change from now on. Thank you for saving my life.
I'm so happy that this worked!
I'm so happy that this worked! You've got no idea how much better i feel after knowing that there is somebody who wont think of me as attention seeking, or stupid & vulnerable or whatever. I decided to tell my mum about it, and she's really worried now and doesn't know what to do, so i tried to reassure her by showing her that it doesnt have to be a big thing, and there are others out there who go through things like this. I think, she thinks i'm secretly self harming, or slowly turning to suicide, but i would never do that to her, or me! Can i just say thank you so much for taking your time to listen to me, and i know where to direct others if they ever feel like this; no pressure! :)
