Painting Pathways Clubhouse has turned my life upside down, in a positive way. Before the clubhouse, I isolated and I was going down a very dark and dangerous path. I was a lost soul, looking for a purpose in life. Since coming to the clubhouse, I finally feel wanted, appreciated, loved, and at last, I have the family I’ve been searching for my entire life. What more could anyone ask for?

For me, Painting Pathways has given me a non-judgmental family in which I am able to share the challenges I face in life. I’ve never had the support of my family, and society has judged me so harshly that I struggle with anxiety, depression and post traumatic stress disorder. I also face a devastating disease which I focused so much on, that I couldn’t see anything good about myself and felt like I didn’t deserve the good things or loving relationships. Painting Pathways changed my mind and changed my life.

It means a lot to me. I have agoraphobia, and I used to not leave the house. However, I now joined the Clubhouse and speak to other members that have the same issues.

I enjoy coming here and doing some work for others. I also like their dinner very much. I am 80 years old, and it gives me something to do.

Did you know mental illness is more prevalent than cancer, diabetes or heart disease? By 2020, behavioral health disorders will be the #1 cause of disability worldwide surpassing all other illnesses.
