Kirsty and James share their powerful experiences of recovery, supported by Blue Triangle’s RISE service in West Dunbartonshire.
Kirsty talks about the turning points that led her to seek help, the fear of starting again, and how steady, compassionate support has helped her rebuild her life.
James reflects on loss, mental health, and the impact of having someone who listens without judgement as he works towards a safer and more hopeful future.
Their stories shine a light on why person‑centred, continuous support matters — and how recovery is possible when people feel seen, understood and never alone.
