How can Brittany's Peer Support help you? 

Have you ever found yourself grappling with the emotions that life and its traumas can bring? You’re not alone—many people face similar struggles. It’s common to overthink, feeling like a burden with your emotions or believing you must remain strong at all costs. While strength is indeed valuable, it doesn’t mean you can’t seek help and support during difficult times.

Everyone encounters challenges in life, and some may face more than others. This page is designed to help you connect with peers, share your stories, access resources, and much more. Don’t hesitate to reach out; my email is available as a resource for you.

Everyone faces challenges:

The image above features me (in the center) alongside my biological siblings, captured in 2018. I chose this moment to share as part of my story because it marks the day I graduated with my psychology degree—one of the best days of my life! This was also the first and only occasion when the four of us were together at once. While it’s likely to be the only time we share such a moment, this day fueled my aspirations throughout my teenage years and high school. I had dreamed of this day ever since I realized I had two brothers and one sister; they were my motivation for many years.

However, I still grapple with the challenge of not having all of them in my life on a regular basis. I’ve had to learn how to love one of them from a distance. It’s not easy, but setting personal boundaries is essential. Please remember, this is just one of many challenges I face, and you are not alone in your struggles. Challenges can be tough, but they often reveal things about ourselves that we never knew. If you find that your challenges are becoming overwhelming, I encourage you to visit the website below. You have support here!

What can I do in time of need?

If you are facing a challenge, remember that you are not alone. It's perfectly okay to seek guidance. Whenever I encounter difficulties or hardships, I've discovered a variety of techniques that provide support in those moments. I hope they may help you, as they have me.

  • Take a walk 
  • Deep breathing techniques
  • Step outside - the fresh air and open space can do wonders! 
  • Listen to music 
  • Keep your hands busy with some kind of fidget
  • Cooking or baking
  • Go for a ride - if emotions allow, if I am safe to drive, I like to roll the windows down and sing to my music. This allows me to physically release any need to want to yell.
  • Playing with my dogs - animal therapy 
  • Count to 10 - repeat if it doesn't help on the first count 
  • Read a book - I like to forget my own challenges and read someone else's 
  • Talking to someone - you do not have to discuss your current challenge, just talking to someone in general can help. 

These techniques are what I rely on when facing hardships or challenges. However, if you find yourself still struggling after trying these methods, I encourage you to seek additional support. Remember, asking for help is perfectly okay—I’ve done it myself. You can use the link provided to seek treatment, or feel free to reach out directly for support and guidance.
