The pandemic has had a huge impact of Anh’s life. The periods of isolation and lack of social interaction left her feeling more anxious than ever.
She was going through a low-point in her life – she was depressed.
Anh started using MOST. She said using the service made her feel like she had a family that understood where she is coming from.
MOST was comforting and made me feel they were my emotional support... I felt more relaxed, calm, knowing that I don't need to go through this all alone.
