“I don’t know how to keep going.”
These are words too many people carry in silence.

Su***de doesn’t always look like despair. Sometimes it looks like the person who keeps smiling, who goes to work every day, who says they’re “fine.” The truth is, many people fight battles no one else can see.

If you are in that place, please know this:
• You are not a burden.
• Your pain is real, and it matters.
• Reaching out does not mean you are weak - it means you are choosing life.

Even when hope feels out of reach, there are people ready to hold it for you until you can hold it again yourself.

If you don’t know what help you need, or where to get it, reach out to us. Let us walk with you as you take the first step toward healing.

Today our team had the privilege of attending the SAAMS Symposium 2025 at the Kelvin Grove Conference Centre in Cape Town. The programme brought together leading voices to engage critically with pressing issues around addiction, technology, medical effects of substances, and the ethical questions surrounding treatment and enhancement.

We are especially proud of Dr Lisa Dannatt, from Bloemendal Clinic, chair of SAAMS.

The diversity of topics and speakers made this gathering an invaluable opportunity to learn, share, and strengthen networks across disciplines. For us at Bloemendal Clinic, it was a reminder that collaboration is essential in addressing the complex realities of addiction and mental health.

September is su***de prevention month!

Su***de is not only about wanting life to end. It’s about wanting the pain to stop. Too often, people carry that pain in silence - afraid to reach out, afraid to be a burden, afraid of the stigma around mental health.

If you’re stuck in your own head, not sure what kind of help you need, or even where to start - reach out. Let us walk with you as you take ownership of the help you deserve.

“Recovery has given me back my life.”

We asked someone what helped them make it to 120 days?
Here’s what they shared:

“The biggest reason I made it is probably that I made recovery the most important thing in my life. I really wanted it - and I would do everything to get it. I leaned into support. I leaned on my therapist, my family, Bloemendal, friends. I meditated and prayed and paused before reacting and reached out when I wanted to isolate. I connected with people. I showed up and I tried to be honest and I chose myself over and over again.

And sometimes it was just luck. The right person saying the right thing at the right time. Or the right person saying nothing, just sitting with me. Or even the wrong person, saying the wrong thing - giving me the chance to practice sitting in discomfort.

I’ve made huge sacrifices and experienced intense conflict. But it’s worth it. I’m starting to see that I’m worth it.”

Recovery is not a straight line. It’s a commitment - and it’s brave.

Sometimes the most powerful proof of healing is found in the victories we win on our own.

We recently received this update from someone who completed treatment with us. She asked to remain anonymous, but was happy for us to share her words - in the hope that it might encourage someone else...

"Day 89 here from Aus.
I feel incredibly proud today of how far I’ve come.

It took some convincing to “allow” my family to “let me” take a solo trip to the Whitsundays to see the Great Barrier Reef — but I finally got them to trust me.

I’ve been tempted a lot these past few days (think Hartenbos or any coastal holiday town in December). I stayed in a hotel on the main street, surrounded by pubs, restaurants and live music — it was lively and energetic. But I managed not to have a single drop of alcohol on the entire trip, proving to myself and everyone else that I can live life and enjoy myself without it.

I went to restaurants by myself, took a day cruise, walked the streets and explored the island and beaches. I didn’t just lock myself away from experiences to avoid temptation - and I couldn’t be prouder of myself.

These last few days have been so good for me. I’m finding my new normal - and realising that I want to enjoy life, not numb it. I want to truly experience all that life has to offer."
