✨ This New Year, be gentle with yourself.

Instead of strict resolutions or “fixing” everything overnight, try giving yourself compassion and understanding. Change doesn’t have to be perfect or immediate and it’s okay to take small steps, at your own pace. 💙

Remember, your journey is unique, and every step forward counts. You deserve kindness, especially from yourself.

The festive season can bring up all kinds of feelings.

Whether it’s certain people, places, or emotions, it’s okay to feel overwhelmed. Knowing your triggers when it comes to drugs or alcohol can help you feel more in control.

💡 If you’re feeling overwhelmed, take a moment to check in with yourself:
🔹 What situations might feel difficult?
🔹 Who can you reach out to for support? Are there friends or family you can lean on?
🔹 What helps you feel grounded?

You deserve to feel safe and supported, especially at this time of year. If you're struggling, you’re not alone.

Want to learn more about managing your feelings? Chat to one of our trained recovery workers via our webchat. Visit wearewithyou.org.uk

🎄 Christmas can feel lonely and it’s okay to talk about it.

While the world around us celebrates, it’s common to feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or alone. Sometimes, that loneliness can lead to using drugs or alcohol to cope. If that’s where you’re at right now, we’re with you.

You don’t have to go through this season on your own. We’re here to listen, without judgement, and support you.

If you’re struggling, get in touch with the WithYou in Shropshire for Young People. 📞Call 01743 294 700 or visit wearewithyou.org.uk/local-hubs/shropshire-recovery-partnership/services/support-for-young-people.

Your mental health matters more.

Taking care of your wellbeing means putting yourself first, and sometimes that means missing out on social events. And that’s completely okay. 💙

Here are some cosy, alcohol-free ways to enjoy the festive season at home:

🎨 Get creative - try painting, drawing, or crafting some Christmas decorations
📚 With the weather getting colder, it’s okay to stay in and watch your favourite TV show or Christmas film
🍳 Try baking a Christmas treat
🧘‍♀️ Try meditation to relax and see if you can go for a walk in the daytime
📞 Connect with a friend or loved one over a call or video chat

Your health and peace of mind come first. Remember, you’re not alone. We’re here for you every step of the way.

Here are our tips to prevent harm this season:

✨Start low, go slow - pace yourself if you're drinking or using drugs
🥂Cutting back on alcohol? Set a drinks limit that feels right for you
💧Stay hydrated and eat beforehand - it helps whether you're drinking or using other substances
🚖Plan your journey home in advance. Pre-book a taxi to get back safely
🧑‍🤝‍🧑Stick with a buddy - try not to use drugs or drink alone
📱Keep your phone charged and check your way home before you head out
🚫Mixing drugs and alcohol can increase your risk of harm - try to avoid mixing

You can still have fun and look after yourself 💙

The festive season isn't always joyful for everyone. And that's okay.
This time of year, we’re encouraged to spend time with family and friends. But for many, the festive season can be a painful reminder of what’s been lost — or what was never there to begin with.

Whether you’re:
🌧️ A parent separated from your children
🌈 LGBTQ+ and estranged from family
🧠 In recovery and needing distance from unhealthy or unsafe relationships
💔 Grieving connections that ended — by choice or by force

You are not alone.
If you're struggling this festive season:
🔹 Give yourself permission to feel what you feel.
🔹 Celebrate the boundaries you've had the strength to set.
🔹 Know that chosen family, quiet holidays, or even doing nothing at all are valid ways to spend this time.

WithYou’s free, confidential webchat service available from our website is a safe space to ask for support. We’re WithYou.

💛 Get tested – it could save your life. 💛

Bloodborne viruses don’t always have obvious symptoms, so you might not know you’re sick. But here’s the good news: testing can save lives.

The test is quick, simple, and discreet – just a prick of your finger. Early detection means early treatment.

Speak to your GP, local pharmacy, or a sexual health clinic about getting a test.

Your health matters. Take the first step today. 💛
