Lonely
Hi, I just want to thank you for everything you done for me there and it meant the world to me as I was feeling very down and lonely and you gave me lots of links and other things to help with them feelings.
it was a small, short chat, but it was a moment where I wasn't lonely, where someone wanted to know how I was. I can't thank you enough for that.

Relationships
Thanks so much to the volunteer who replied to my message at 5am this morning when I was feeling really stressed and concerned about a situation that had just happened with my boyfriend. She was so reassuring and it was like speaking to one of my best friends. Communicating with my volunteer and opening up to her helped me open up to my boyfriend and sort everything out with him. Which I wouldn't have been able to do without your help. This is the first time I've used a service like this and 100% won't be the last. Thank you so so much.

Depression/Sadness
Thank you so, so much for your kind words tonight. I texted out of sadness and with tears and left the conversation feeling empowered, strong, and with a smile on my face and i thank you so so much for it. The world needs more people like you, and all the volunteers here. Stay safe during this time and thank you
I appreciated the help. It was brief, but I was sad and crying and feeling really adrift. I couldn't get a hold of anyone in my life and I needed something to anchor me. The chat really stopped me drifting further into my head.

Anxiety
I felt a bit apprehensive to text as I didn't consider my anxiety as a "big enough" issue to text in about in comparison to some other people's issues, but the volunteer I dealt with was so reassuring and understanding. I feel so much better and we discussed things I can do to help when I begin feeling overwhelmed and anxious again.
I will definitely be recommending this service to anyone I know who may be struggling as even just typing my thoughts and worries was really helpful. Thank you again.
