"For many years, my life felt unpredictable. Living with schizophrenia meant I was often in and out of hospital, especially when I had relapses. I was seeing my psychiatrist every two weeks and receiving my depot medication regularly, but I still struggled with my emotions and behaviours. I had support from community mental health, but I often felt overwhelmed and unsure of how to manage my day to day life."
"When Better Think started supporting me, things changed in a way I never expected."
"Their team didn’t just help me — they understood me. They stayed calm when I felt angry or distressed, and they handled my behaviour in a way that made me feel safe instead of ashamed. They treated me with respect, spoke to me kindly, and never made me feel like a problem. For the first time, I felt like the people supporting me actually believed in me."
"Since Better Think has been in my life, I haven’t had a single relapse. I haven’t gone back to hospital once. My days feel more stable, and I’ve learned how to manage my emotions better. My routine makes sense now, and I feel more in control."
"I can honestly say I’m happier than I’ve been in years. I trust the team, and I know they’re there for me — not just when things are good, but when I’m struggling too. Their support has helped me stay steady, stay well, and stay out of hospital."
"Better Think has made a real difference in my life. I’m grateful every day for the support they give me."
