“I reached to My Oppo Instagram Page when I was in a really bad place, I was aware the organisation work with people who live with PTSD, and they were offering a free help programme.

The charity has helped me overcome anxiety, depression but most importantly my motivation. By using the 05:30am fitness classes as a starting point this helped me gain mental strength.

I am completely happy with the range of activities offered, although the 05:30am fitness starts can be quite difficult to maintain 🙂

For me, having the weekly chat in with Rebecca was most beneficial because it is comforting to talk to someone who understands what you are going through, it also showed that there are people who want to help you and care.

At present I feel much more understanding of myself (through provided information and research from the charity). I now know I am not alone in my PTSD.

I honestly don’t think the charity could provide any more.

My Oppo has really helped me in the past months. If anything, it would be nice to keep in touch i.e., the check ins.”
