Brooke’s Story
When Brooke began experiencing anxiety at age 13, she was initially worried about ‘the small stuff.' But when Mandy, Brooke’s mom, noticed her daughter was losing weight and self-harming, she knew her anxiety had escalated, and she needed urgent help and support with her mental health.
Mandy, a student support worker at a junior high, encouraged her daughter to call the IWK’s Central Referral toll-free number for mental health support. Although Brooke was scared and hesitant to make the call, she did—and it would be a life-changing decision with a positive impact on her life.
