""I was bullied at school and told off for crying – so I learned to hide my feelings. I started to have identity issues from my early 20’s & I became very anxious as a result. At the age of 53, I was given a formal diagnosis of Asperger’s & my mental health went downhill. But the Serenity Café has given me a safe space to come to and it makes my life better as I can spend some time with other people, which I have always found hard to do".
