Description
It's very common for people who have been in a relationship with someone who suffers from a mental illness to have put all their own needs into a box and stuffed it away out of sight while they fight the fires of relationship conflict.
Our Stepping Out for Women Programme is a course for women with adult or teenage children or another family member with mental illness.
Our sincere hope is that you will come away from this programme with:
- A strong sense of purpose
- A clear understanding of your role in your family member's life
- The ability to set limits that work for you and your family
- A new understanding of how to look after yourself
- The ability to be your own coach
- Strategies for living a fulfilling and happy life
