Case Studies

My name is Kristian with all stories i will start at beginning i never understood the importance of education and so I made a lot of mistakes growing up I misbehaved at school and as a consequence I left school early because of bad decisions and because of that I’m now playing catch up with my education.

Growing up I never knew where I fitted in or what I wanted to be so I turned to cannabis and smoking cigarettes it numbed the loneliness and hatred for the man I was becoming i grew older and my eyes opened realising the numbing effect was wearing off so then my mental health slowly got so bad i lost who i was i became another person a person i did not like but cannabis kept me living with a acceptance for that person i kept on making bad decisions.

In doing so it brought me shame and bad hygiene my family wished and hoped for the person they new was still there to stop and change but it never happened i never saw there pain that i was creating my mental health got so bad and isolation so claustrophobic i hit a wall , my mind broke and i was sectioned by the hospital i had a lot of fear and despair and a lot of time to think once id reach there the look on my families face was devastating i never cared about anybody else with what i was doing i eventually came out of hospital and soon after reverted back to old patterns.

What was i supposed to do the voice in my head got so loud telling me stop fear grew i could not live like this anymore something had to change i wanted purpose in my life i wanted a sign something to help, something to tell me i was worth something so I began with looking on internet for work experience something to get me out of the isolation and whether it be luck or fate or destiny me and my mother found a site on internet something called manleigh at the time I didn’t know what it was I just thought it was just another site that couldn’t help but I made the leap and it came to be life changing that turned my life around completely I made friends i had purpose I realised and most importantly I fell in love with the gift of my life and I got the most precious thing respect from my family that allowed me to see that I had just made a GOOD DECISION ManLeigh gave me the key to the other me that i slowly lost all those years ago it gives you the right type of support that many people desperately need and i am forever grateful.
