  Who we are and what we do.

1. A peer group. 

Peer support has been helpful for us, and we want other people to have the same experience. Many of us felt quite alone and isolated in our diagnosis, or belief of having a personality disorder, but being able to speak with like-minded people and understand that there are other people who have the same thought patterns, ways of thinking, and doing things was a relief. 

Being able to talk in a 'safe' environment, and have people understand and perhaps give their thoughts about how they deal with certain situations - or just share our experiences is beneficial for us all. We feel that having the opportunity to be around others who have the same experience is validating and helpful in moving forward with life. 

2. A group who want to raise awareness.

Through our website, and by outreach as various events we hope to help others understand what a personality disorder is, how it can affect someone's life, the other people in their lives, and how you might be able to support that individual. 

We do not claim to be experts, but we are self-experts and believe that although every individual is different there are some coping mechanisms that we can share, and good information that can be passed on to others. 

3. A training provider.

We have been able to provide training to various types of organisations, including the NHS, The Police, and various local counselling services. 

To have a first hand account of what a personality disorder is, and how it affects us can be very beneficial for people who might come into contact with others who have similar difficulties. We are uniquely able to offer insight in a safe environment that could go a long way to helping someone else later down the line whether they have a personality disorder or are trying to help someone who does.
