Lucy's Story
I was initially hesitant to reach out for help for my mental health struggles, as I didn’t feel they were important enough – or that I wouldn’t be taken seriously. At 20 I finally reached out, and am so glad I did. That is why I think its great ticplus goes up to age 21. I found the experience really validating, and staff helped me reframe my thoughts to help me process them in a different way. I have had much fewer panic attacks since the counselling.
At 20 years old I was unsure if ticplus was going to be suitable for me, but I found I was treated like an adult and didn’t at all feel patronised. For any young adults struggling with their mental wellbeing I would definitely recommend ticplus. It has personally helped me with my anxiety and panic attacks, without the need for medication.
