Growing together
My first person experience
I landed in AVIFES and more specifically in AURRERAKA because of a brother. He left a brochure on the table in case it might interest me and I was hardly going to read it, because I thought: “Well, just another thing. After 39 years from here to there, therapies of all kinds, different professionals, what else can this provide me in a different way? ”
But just for not making an affront, I picked up the phone and then something unimaginable and unexpected opened up to me. People were open to me, to what I could contribute. As time has passed and I have opened myself, I have discovered wonderful and open minded people, a group that transmits love and empathy, each in their own way, according to their age, their personal situation and that is why they still surprised me every day.
I am in this project now, I have not finished the path but I owe so much to all of them.
THANK YOU, MATES OF AURRERAKA!
THANK YOU AVIFES!
I have been suffering from this disease for 14 years and I have been cloistered at home for a good part of those years not wanting to go out or do anything, but one day, thanks to my family, I discovered AVIFES.
They helped me to carry out different activities, interact with other people and break the stigma about mental illness, because there is still a part of society that marginalizes us and AVIFES breaks with all this.
For this I want to thank AVIFES and the mental health professionals.
