What is SilverCloud

Conor, 21, on using the Space for Positive Body Image Program

Doing an online program gave me the support I needed. It might sound a bit odd, but it was comforting to know that I could log on any time that I was struggling with my emotions. I found it a little difficult to keep up with the program at first because of my workload at college. When I realized I could access the program on my smartphone, it made a huge difference.

Nicola, 20, on using the Space for Resilience Program

For a while after my mum died, I felt like I was aimlessly wandering through life with no direction. I knew I couldn’t continue on this way and so I recently decided to go back to college. My main goal for the resilience program is to learn how to cope better with my problems, rather than simply turning a blind eye to them.

Ayaz 21, on using the Space for Sleep program

I would often cancel plans to see friends from college because I just couldn’t find the energy to get out the house. It wasn’t until I had been filling out the sleep diary for a few weeks that I realized how little I was actually sleeping. The program showed me how making small changes could have a big impact on the quality of my sleep.

Helen, 43, on using the Space from Alcohol program

I didn’t know what to think when I came across SilverCloud. I wasn’t sure how an online program could make any difference. It’s hard to keep track of how much you’re drinking when every bottle has a different number of units. The drink diary has been really useful to figure out exactly what’s going on. Now I know for sure I can’t keep going on this way.

Sarah, 20, on using the Space from Stress Program

I knew I needed help when I found it hard to concentrate on my college work. I was really motivated to do something to improve my stress levels, but I felt like it would be a struggle to fit in all the exercises. But with an online program I could log on whenever I had the time – day or night.
