What participants said...
SamCounseling service of MEMO had helped me understand my emotions which were really confusing me. It also helped me got through difficult times. Talking to a trained professional who is not involved in my life was so therapeutic. A counselling session is a safe place to unload, and you can walk away feeling a little lighter and - hopefully - understanding yourself more.

JoeA listener and someone who is able to explore and help give me courage to move on. I am now more confident. Recently, I was referred to a more experienced service to deal with my past experience about bullying and discrimination. So yes, my experience has been great with the counselling service so far and I recommend it to everyone.

NancyI used to feel isolated and lonely, because locals have always been ignoring what I said and laughed at me. At school, I was usually sleeping in lessons because I feel neglected. However, my class teacher advised me to have counselling service at MEMO, I started to understand that I, myself, was the one who imagined all the negative feelings and they were not true. The counsellor told me to think positively and to make friends with others actively. I am now no longer feeling negatively! Thanks MEMO!

LikaI was talked into counselling by the people around me. I lied to myself for years that I was ok and I do not need help, even if there is any. I am so glad that I listened to the people around me because without them I would not go to counselling and I don't think I'd still be here. To have someone who will listen to you and understand how you really feel when you are depressed can really make a difference.
I cannot really say that it changed me into an optimist. But it gives me hope. |
KiminnaFace it, most of us will be daunted by our own crumpled life at some point in our lives. Life is a journey, a journey with ups and downs and moments of excitement and fear and that is life, a journey with endless battles drenched with blood and sweat sometimes it is just too hard.
This is the time when I turned to my counsellor in MEMO. They give me the support and the tools. They are like a sounding board through this journey. You can shout as loud as you want. It is like sliding weights off your shoulder. Thanks to their work, I have grown to know myself better, I have more confidence in myself now. It is all about being honest to yourself and believing in what you can achieve. There have been ups and downs and it hasn't been easy all the time, but every minute of this journey is worthwhile. Because I am me. |
