Vivian’s Journey to Recovery
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder approximately 30 years ago when I realized that I was unhappy with my life and became angry easily. I reached out for help through a counselor, and I was diagnosed with mental illness. Throughout my mental health journey, I have been hospitalized about three times.
After my son mentioned Breakthrough Clubhouse to me about 20 years ago, I checked it out and was immediately interested.
I decided to become a member, as I appreciated their ability to understand my illness. Payee services have helped me with my finances and have allowed me to become financially independent. Clubhouse work-order days helped me gain skills to find employment opportunities. Because of Breakthrough Clubhouse, I’ve been able to live an independent life without frequent hospitalizations. Breakthrough provided me with a safe place to feel included despite my mental health challenges.
