“I was a bit scared of attending my first class, but I needn’t have worried. Everyone was in a similar situation and very welcoming. I have gone from a sad, lonely widow with little hope for a life, to an outgoing sociable person who decided it was time for me to concentrate on myself. I will always support and recommend anyone in a similar need to contact Solent Mind.”

“I was able to talk about myself, my situation and my family, to someone outside of my situation. Just being listened to enabled me to think more positively and I’m less anxious and worried. I now feel back on track. Thank you.”

“I would like to take the time to thank you for your kind support on behalf of my mother. Your regular and insightful communication, your constant availability and your caring attention to her needs have been a great source of comfort to her and, perhaps even more so, to me.”

"This service has been a lifeline for me and has helped me cope with some huge challenges in my life. I would not have been able to do this on my own and I am so grateful that the italk service is there for people like me, it is hugely important.”
