Meet Ashley, CMHA PEI Peer Support Manager…and Suicide Survivor

“Our recovery is not linear, but it is up to us to continue to fight through feelings that are uncomfortable. I always tell my clients that the feeling we have is temporary and uncomfortable, but our strength lies in coming together and fighting those feelings as there will always be light after dark.”
