"We can always love people and have compassion for their struggles, but we can't always be close to damaging behaviours if we are to be healthy and functioning ourselves."
Wishing you all the best on the next part of your journey @beccablandish ...

"Not everyone has unconditionally loving, close & healthy family relationships....reconciliation isn't always the answer to traumatic family relationships."

2/2 Yet hard to see the @theSNP have decided to burden the most vulnerable students in this cost of living crisis with more debt. Estranged students deserve no worse treatment than care experienced students. Yet they are getting it.

1/2 Really pleased to see success for @NUSScotland’s campaign on more financial support for Scottish students. £900 increase in funds into students pockets is very welcome.

Really pleased for @UKStandAlone to be featured in @Cosmopolitan today. A rare focus on how LGBT young people are more vulnerable to family breakdown too. What it means to be estranged from your family - Cosmopolitan.com - goo.gl/alerts/vbB4i8 #GoogleAlerts

4 years ago I was suicidal & getting ready to leave care & about to face the worst 6 months of my life. Today I start my new job as a beauty therapist as well as being at uni, working with care leavers & working in mental health. Change is 100% possible & suicide is preventable!
