WRITTEN TESTIMONIALS
“The Clubhouse to me means a place where people can go to who have mental illness to get together and share their different experiences with each other. Before I started attending the Clubhouse, I used to think that I was the only one struggling with mental illness, but then I started meeting people who are going through similar experiences or worse than mine. I love coming here because, to me, it’s a place where I can talk with other people and make friends. There are many different activities to do here so you won’t be bored. Lastly, I can relate with many people here. I’m so happy that I finally found a place where people who have mental illness share their stories and learning from one another.”
